Little Houses

A little white house
In the heart of town
On a little sad street
Just a little run-down
Became a home
For Bill and Sue
Two newleyweds who did the best
That they could do
And when they'd brush each other
passing in the hall
Sue would smile and say,
"This place is pretty small"
You know, love grows best in little houses
With few walls to seperate
Where you eat and sleep so close together
You can't help but communicate
And if we had more room between us
Think of all we'd miss
Love grows best in houses just like this
Before too long
Sue and Bill
Were making plans
For Jack and Jill
Oh, happy day
When the news came in
But what to do
They found out Sue
Was having twins
And when they could not pass each other in the hall
Sue would smile and say,
"This place is really, really small,"
But you know, love grows best in little houses
With few walls to seperate
Where you eat and sleep so close together
You can't help but communicate
And if we had more room between us
Think of all we'd miss
Love grows best in houses just like this
That little white-framed house still keeps them warm
Though it's been thirty-two years since the kids were born
When they look at how they hold each other tight
They whisper in each other's ears,
"You know you were right"
Because love grows best in little houses
With few walls to seperate
Where you eat and sleep so close together
You can't help but communicate
And if we had more room between us
Think of all we'd miss
Love grows best in houses just like this
Yeah, love grows best in houses just like this
