Mother, sister, daughter, friend You are the surest thing in my life I will love you till the end My heart beats stronger just knowing that I make you proud And as I write this song about your love, I promise to sing it loud
"Son you must practice patience A cluttered room leads to a cluttered mind Just brush yourself off and keep your chin up I promise this will all end up fine"
"Mothers plant within our hearts the seeds that swiftly grow Into the sweetest memories that we will ever know"
Her words are powerful enough To make dust seem like fine gold His voice has strength enough To crush mountains into stone
They put the future on hold until further notice When it came calling, as an answer They told it they'd found something far more suited for their care In Idaho, they started a family In California, they found the lumber And in Connecticut, they built the frame On the ocean is how he fed his family With her hands she tilled the soil And with his he repaired the roof, the walls, the floorboards
"We made love We made life We built this home"
"We built such a beautiful home, my love"
We made love We made life We built this home And in it we poured all that was in our hearts We made love We made life We built this home But in the winter, with the cold, the pipes all burst from the frost We made love We made life We built this home And as we look towards the future We'll answer its call in stride
