I know that you've given it some thought; The future isn't all that far away; And lately it's been on my mind a lot; Cause life hasn't really gone our way. Sometimes it feels like they're trynin' to test us; Almost like the odds are always all against us; But we've always made it through; If it's just me and you, then; We'll build this house, build it up from rubble. Tear our lives down, helpin' out each other; The taste of your mouth, baby I swear. And you'll take that house, turn it to a home; We'll have our first child, and let everyone know; Take that post from your porch, and I'll make it a cornerstone; Nothin' compares. Maybe you think that it's stupid; But I love to jump to conclusions; You're more than wild and ruthless, you're my cure; And I can't promise you I'm different; I'm just a kid with a vision; I'll teach our baby boys to say your name; Slow dancin' with our daughters in the rain, after; We built this house, built it up from rubble; Made parents frown, just tryna love each other; You said you were down, and we went from there. We'll build that house, build it up from rubble; Tear our lives down, we can't stay our of trouble; The taste of your mouth, baby I swear. And you'll take that house, turn it to a home; We'll have our first child, and let everyone know; Take that post from your porch, and I'll make it the cornerstone; Nothin' compares.
