Building a House
I'm pouring coffee
In the kitchen backtracking to the part he
Started talking bout a life right beside me
Had it all planned out
Someday Somehow
Now he's pouring concrete
Over what used to be some pine trees
Once upon a time it was a pipe dream
But it all panned out put 10 percent down
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house
Word gets around here
Rumor has it she ain't from around here
Ain't it crazy how much can change
In one year
He's got green grass now
And the porch wraps round
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house
They're starting a life
She's living the dream
That used to be mine
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house
In the kitchen backtracking to the part he
Started talking bout a life right beside me
Had it all planned out
Someday Somehow
Now he's pouring concrete
Over what used to be some pine trees
Once upon a time it was a pipe dream
But it all panned out put 10 percent down
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out

He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house
