Just an old house with stories of its own
|
Takes me back to days gone by
|
The colors have faded and the steps are made of stone
|
An aging friend against the sky
|
When I was a boy I grew to love this land
|
And the house my granddaddy's hands had made
|
The walls have held stury through every kind of wind
|
'Cause everyhing he made he made that way
|
|
Under one roof where the fires of love were burned
|
And broken hearts were mended, too
|
Under one roof many lessons have been learned
|
And simple dreams could still come true
|
|
Now I've been gone for far too long it seems
|
But I always knew that I'd come back someday
|
And now my life is one to share with you
|
We can build this love in a country way
|
|
Under one roof, where the fires of love are burning,
|
And broken hearts are mended, too
|
Under one roof many lessons to be learned
|
And simple dreams can still come true
|
|
Like the man who built the house long ago
|
His children's children will continue to grow
|
With hopes and dreams that we all could be
|
Brothers and sisters in one family and live...
|
|
Under one roof, where the fires of love are burning
|
And broken hearts will be mended, too
|
Under one roof many lessons will be learned
|
And simple dreams can still come true
|
There's a place in this world for me and you
|
Where simple dreams can still come true
|
