Home |
That night the walls were speaking |
The pipes inside them, creaking |
Told the secret that was rising in the halls |
And you lay beside me sleeping |
With the dreams that you were keeping |
The smoke was in the stairwell outside the wall |
We had moved in just November |
The first night, remember |
We lit a candle |
Laid a mattress on the floor |
And we toasted to our savings |
To adulthood |
To behaving |
To this house with drafty windows |
Creaking doors |
Home |
Is the woman across the table |
Home |
Is dreaming in my sheets |
Home |
Home |
This house is just an address |
You’re my home |
So we stood like statues staring |
While the sirens came in blaring |
The Johnsons brought us coffee |
For the cold |
And somewhere I heard some singing |
It was my radio alarm clock ringing |
With a wakeup call singing to my soul |
I can’t believe I’m thanking Jesus |
As I watch my roof come down |
But I can put back all the pieces |
As long as you’re around |
