Backstory:
We enjoyed writing this song and it didn't take too long. We both had ideas from the title and went from there. We wanted a happy, inviting song.
Lyrics:
I Want To Be That House
Flowers up the path way
Every colour under the sun
Stone steps paint is fading
From busy feet on the run
Worn out welcome mat
Has seen many friends stop by
Shutters flung wide open
You can smell that hot peach pie
And when I walk past every single time
I smile and think of all the reasons why
I wanna be that house
Where everybody loves everybody
I wanna be that home
Where sadness doesn’t last too long
Laughter in the backyard, dancing in the kitchen,
Just sit back and take it all in
Where love runs deep and pours out loud
I wanna be that house
There’s a pile of boots and shoes
Up against the back screen door
There’s a trail of muddy paws
All across the white tile floor
Growth chart getting taller
Marking everything that was
Refrigerator magnets spell
‘Happy is as happy does’
Doesn’t matter what it’s made of wood, straw or brick
As long as the foundation’s laid with love in it
I wanna be that house
Where everybody loves everybody
I wanna be that home
Where sadness doesn’t last too long
Laughter in the backyard, dancing in the kitchen,
Just sit back and take it all in
Where love runs deep and pours out loud
I wanna be that house
I wanna be that house
Saving up for it and I can hardly wait
I’ll pour that love into my own place
I wanna be that house
Where everybody loves everybody
I wanna be that home
Where sadness doesn’t last too long
Laughter in the backyard, dancing in the kitchen,
Just sit back and take it all in
Where love runs deep and pours out loud
I wanna be that house
I wanna be that house
