I love this house I built this house We raised our children here The walls have shared the tumult In the pa**ing of the years But we lost it all last Saturday In the crackle and the roar Our home consumed Escaping All we had was what we wore Our little street The blackened wrecks Here one moment Gone the next Our little house There's nothing left Here one moment Gone the next No policy or insurance deal Could properly replace The memories and love That we had tied up in this place The markings on the door-frames All we've done and all we've known It takes months to build a house It takes a life to build a home Our little street The blackened wrecks Here one moment Gone the next Our little house There's nothing left Here one moment Gone the next
