Something To Build Upon Lyrics

I wanna give you a new home

I wanna build us a life here she said

A safe place for the kids and

a warm bed awaiting you each night



I’ll never take you for granted

I’m gonna make you feel special he said

Two strong arms that will hold you

A soft touch to waken you each day



Here we lay to rest

all of what is left

Here we spread the soil

of this our mortal coil



She’ll be away for the most part

She’ll screw around the first few months

She won’t laugh at the movies

the fact is she won’t laugh much at all



He’ll never stop with the drinking

He’ll keep getting angrier each year

He won’t see any plans through

the fact is he won’t do much at all



These are the pros

These are the cons

Something for us to build upon
