The House That Built Me (我长大的房子) - The Country Dance Kings (乡村舞王)[00:00:00]
I know they say you can't go home again[00:00:20]
I just had to come back one last time[00:00:27]
Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam[00:00:32]
But these handprints on the front steps are mine[00:00:38]
Up those stairs in that little back bedroom[00:00:44]
Is where I did my homework[00:00:50]
And I learned to play guitar[00:00:52]
I bet you didn't know under that live oak[00:00:56]
My favorite dog is buried in the yard[00:01:02]
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it[00:01:08]
This brokenness inside me might start healing[00:01:14]
Out here it's like I'm someone else[00:01:20]
I thought that maybe I could find myself[00:01:23]
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave[00:01:29]
Won't take nothing but a memory[00:01:34]
From the house that built me[00:01:37]
Mama cut out pictures of houses for you[00:01:46]
From Better Homes and Gardens magazine[00:01:52]
Plans were drawn and concrete poured[00:01:58]
Nail by nail and board by board[00:02:01]
Daddy gave life to mama's dream[00:02:05]
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it[00:02:10]
This brokenness inside me might start healing[00:02:16]
Out here it's like I'm someone else[00:02:22]
I thought that maybe I could find myself[00:02:25]
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave[00:02:31]
Won't take nothing but a memory[00:02:36]
From the house that built me[00:02:39]
You leave home and you move on[00:02:49]
And you do the best you can[00:02:52]
I got lost in this old world and forgot who I am[00:02:55]
I thought if I could touch this place or feel it[00:03:04]
This brokenness inside me might start healing[00:03:09]
Out here it's like I'm someone else[00:03:15]
I thought that maybe I could find myself[00:03:18]
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave[00:03:24]
Won't take nothing but a memory[00:03:29]
From the house that built me[00:03:33]
