House On The Water

I have this vision where you hold me in the kitchen
And the wake of the water glistens through the window
I hold on to the image, even though it's off in the distance
I know it might take a minute, but good things come slow, just know

I swear I will wait for you if you wait for me too
So hold on a little bit longer, it's only a little bit further
We can build a home for two, just you, me, and a view
So hold on a little bit longer, meet me in a house on the water
Meet me in a house on the water

Grew up on Park Beach, it's a drive right off the Chesapeake
With a boat, a dock, and a porch swing, when I told you
That later on in my old age, I'd spend every one of my last days
In a small house on the big bay, you said you'd come too

And I know that was years ago
But you should know that I still hold on hope
I don't think I'll ever let you go, no

I swear I will wait for you if you wait for me too
So hold on a little bit longer, it's only a little bit further
We can build a home for two, just you, me, and a view
So hold on a little bit longer, meet me in a house on the water
Meet me in a house on the water

So when you miss me, think of this imagery
And how one day we'll be there, so just wait for me
Oh, tell me you'll wait for me 'cause

I swear I will wait for you if you'll wait for me too
So hold on a little bit longer, it's only a little bit further
We can build a home for two, just you, me, and a view
So hold on a little bit longer, meet me in a house on the water
Meet me in a house on the water

In a house on the water, mm
Two sons and a daughter (daughter)
You and me at the altar
