White Picket Fence

You're the queen of hearts
I'm just a joker with a diamond
You were hoping for a full house
I guess that I was just lying to myself

You deserve a king
A man to put you on the throne
Yeah I wish it could be me babe
But when it's wrong it's wrong

Never build a white picket fence
Around a house of cards
Even thought you want to babe
Just because you came this far
No never build a white picket, fence
Around a house of cards
'Cause the first time that the wind, blows babe
The whole thing's gonna fall apart
So let's get out while we both still got a chance
Before our first kiss, and our first dance
And a white picket fence

You drove down to Austin
You got some healing from your sister
I packed up the U-Haul
Second guessing 'cause I miss ya
What am I supposed to tell our friends
I guess you gonna keep the dog
You know I'm one foot out the door babe
I know it isn't what you want

You can't build a white picket fence
Around a house of cards
Even though you want to babe
Just because you came this far
No never build, a white picket fence
Around a house of cards
'Cause the first time, that the wind blows babe
The whole thing's gonna fall apart
So let's get out while we both still got a chance
Before our first kiss, and our first dance
And a white picket fence

No never build a white picket fence
Around some broken hearts
Just because you're scared to leave
Just because it seems too hard

No never build a white picket fence
Around a house of cards
'Cause the first time that the wind blows babe
The whole thing's gonna fall apart
So let's get out while we both still got a chance
Before our first kid and our first dance

And a white picket fence
Yeah a white picket fence
