Made a Home

I poured the concrete, cut the 2×4’s

Planted that oak tree and stained that front door

I hung your porch swing, painted that picket fence

Yeah, I built the whole thing nail by nail and brick by brick

Aw but, girl, what you did

Was put the singin’ in the kitchen, the dancin’ down the hallway

The livin’ in the living room and the savin’ me on Sunday

You put the tangle in the sheets and the perfume on my pillow

Without you, it’s just a pile of sticks and stones

I built a house, you made a home

You picked every color and bought all the antiques

Hung the pictures up of all our favorite memories

You watered those roses out in the front yard

Left the “I love you” on the mirror in a lipstick heart

Girl, I love everything you are

‘Cause you’re still the singin’ in the kitchen, the dancin’ down the hallway

The livin’ in the living room and the savin’ me on Sunday

You put the tangle in the sheets and the perfume on my pillow

Without you, it’s just a pile of sticks and stones

I built a house and you made a home

You put the tangle in the sheets and the perfume on my pillow

Without you, it’s just a pile of sticks and stones

I built a house and you made a home
