I know they say
you can't go home agian
I just had to come back one last time
Ma'am I know you
don't know me from Adam
But these handprints
on the front steps are mine
up those stairs in that little back
bedroom, is were I did my homework
and I learned to play guitar
And I bet you didn't know,
under that live oak
my favorite dog
is buried in the yard
I thought if I could touch
this place or feel it
This brokeness inside
me might start healing
out here it's like I'm someone
else I thought that mabey
I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear
I'll leave won't take nothing
but a memory from
The House That Built Me
Mama cut out pictures from houses
for years from Better Homes and
Garden Magazines
plans were drawn
and concrete poured
nail by nail and
board by board
daddy gave life
to mama's dream
I thought if I could touch
this place or feel it
this brokeness inside me
might start healing
out here its like i'm someone
else I thought that mabey
I could find myself
If I could just come in I swear I'll
leave won't take nothing but a
memory from the house that built me
you leave home you move on
and you do the best you can
I got lost in this whole world
and forgoteen who I am
I thought if I could touch
this place or feel it
this brokeness inside
me might start healing
out here its like i'm
someone else
I thought that mabey
I could find myself
If I could walk around
I swear I'll leave won't
take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me
