Midnight, that old clock keeps ticking, |
|
The kids are all asleep and i'm walking the floor. |
|
Darlin' i can see that you're dreaming, |
|
And i don't wanna wake you up |
|
When i close the door. |
|
This old house of ours is built on dreams |
|
And a businessman don't know what that means. |
|
There's a garden outside she works in every day |
|
And tomorrow morning a man from the bank's |
|
Gonna come and take it all away. |
|
Lately, i've been thinking 'bout daddy, |
|
And how he always made things work, when the chips were down, |
|
And i know i've got something inside me |
|
There's always a light there to guide me |
|
To what can't be found. |
|
This old house of ours is built on dreams |
|
And a businessman don't know what that means. |
|
There's a swing outside the kids play on every day |
|
And tomorrow morning a man from the bank's |
|
Gonna come and take it all away. |
|
Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away. |
|
Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away. |
|
Remember how we first came here together? |
|
Standing on an empty lot, holding hands. |
|
Later, we came back in the moonlight |
|
And made love right where the kitchen is, |
|
Then we made our plans. |
|
This old house of ours is built on dreams |
|
And a businessman don't know what that means. |
|
There's a garden outside she works in every day |
|
And tomorrow morning a man from the bank's |
|
Gonna come and take it all away. |
|
Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away. |
|
Take it all away, take it all away, take it all away. |
