Alli Leighann - Building A House

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2068070
Verse 1
I'm pouring coffee
In the kitchen backtracking to the part he
Started talking ’bout a life right beside me
Had it all planned out, someday, somehow

Verse 2
Now he's pouring concrete
Over what used to be some pine trees
Once upon a time it was a pipe dream
But it all panned out, put ten percent down

Chorus
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it’s got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I’m falling apart
He’s building a house

Verse 3
Word gets around here
Rumor has it she ain't from around here
Ain’t it crazy how much can change in one year?
He's got green grass now and the porch wraps round

Chorus
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It’s everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house

Bridge
They're starting a life
She's living the dream
That used to be mine

Chorus
It's probably sitting on a couple hundred acres
And I bet it's got a quarter mile drive
It's everything I've ever wanted on paper
Outside the city on the country side
He's breaking ground
Framing up forever
I'm breaking down
He's never been better
I'm picking up the pieces
He's picking up paint that she picked out
I'm falling apart
He's building a house
