Lyrics: Make This House A Home
Album: Unknown
Artist: Indigo Girls
 

Well there’s something in us living
There’s something you should know
There was a time for us to fall
Now it’s time to grow
But you know it’s not the way
That i intended it to be
Crossing hearts and killing souls
And trying to get down to what’s real

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home
I let go of sinking sand won’t you help me find a stone
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
Was to make this house a home

All i needed was your hand to hold
I spent so much time alone
I needed your direction
But we re-aligned my broken bones
Well they’re running from a lifeless state
Somehow we lost our hold
All we have with us is change
Left over from what started out as gold

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home
I let go of sinking sand – won’t you help me find a stone
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
Was to make this house a home

This is what i give to you
It’s flesh and blood
It’s body and soul
Won’t you take what’s left of who i am
And try to see it whole

I’m holding you responsible for every word i say
If you feel the brokenness
Won’t you try and look the other way
I never meant to be so low
I only wanted you to see
That time was healing someone else
But it’s tearing apart the very heart of me

This is what i give to you
It’s flesh and blood
It’s body and soul
Won’t you take what’s left of who i am
And try to see it whole

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home
I let go of sinking sand – won’t you help me find a stone
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
All i ever wanted
Was to make this house a home
So make this house a home
Make this house a home
Make this house a home
