home wasn't built in a day

put on your worst jeans

and meet me in the living room

i have a bottle of red wine that's waiting for you

let sit on the floorboards

and put on some tunes

argue about

what kind of wallpaper we will use

we've waited a long time for this

and now we are on our way

we have to be patient

dear

cause home wasn't built in a day

let's dance in the kitchen

a night on the tiles

so we can feel

something that we haven't felt in a while

let's put up that picture

of you and our friends

then discover

that that bastard boiler is broken again

we've waited a long time for this

and now we are on our way

we have to be patient

dear

cause home wasn't built in a day

we're hoping for good times

we've been hanging horse shoes

i can tell you

that there's no room for sadness under this roof

we filled it with music

and plants we've grown

maybe one day

we could share this space with some kids of our own

we've waited a long time for this

and now we are on our way

we have to be patient

dear

cause home wasn't built in a day
