Four Corners

Had dreams of a tiny mansion
With a yard where my dogs could run
Where I'd store all my prized possessions
And have it painted with the colors of the sun
The walls would be made of bricks
To protect all the memories made in it
But before it was even built
My whole world crumbled

'Cause you made me realize
It's not about size or space we occupy

These four corners are only a house
If you're not in it
Just a box that is made from stone
Not ashamed to admit it
Took me a minute
To come to my senses
Fill these spaces with memories
Not with possessions
My favorite obsession
Greatest lesson
These four corners are only a house
But you make it a home
Oh you make it a home

This roof protects us from the elements
But in your arms is where I feel secure
When nothing else is even making sense
I'll count the waves with you by the ocean shore
God knew exactly what he was doing
The plot twist was so unfathomable
Sometimes we gotta go through complete and utter ruin
In order for the story to unfold

And you made me realize
It's about who fills the spaces that we occupy

These four corners are only a house
If you're not in it
Just a box that is made from stone
Not ashamed to admit it
Took me a minute
To come to my senses
Fill these spaces with memories
Not with possessions
My favorite obsession
Greatest lesson
These four corners are only a house
But you make it a home
Oh you make it a home
Oh you make it a home
Oh you make it a home
Oh you make it a home
