THE HOUSE THAT BUILT ME I know they say Ya can't go home again but i just had to come back one last time ma'am i know you dont know me from Adam but these handprints on the front steps are mine up those stairs in that little back bedroom is where i did my homework and i learned to play the guitar and i bet you didn't know under that live oak my favorite dog is buried in the yard I thought if I could touch this place or feel it this brokeness inside me might start healing out here its like im someone else i thought that maybe i could find myself if i could just come in i swear i'll leave wont take nothing but a memory from the house that built me Mamma cut out pictures of houses for years from better homes and garden magazine plans were drawn concrete poured nail by nail board by board daddy gave life to mamma's dream i thought if i could touch this place or feel it this brokeness inside me might start healing out here its like im someone else i thought that maybe i could find myself if just come in i swear i'll leave wont take nothing but a memory from the house that built me ya leave home ya move on and ya do the best ya can i got lost in this old world and forgot who i am i thought if i could touch this place or feel it this brokeness inside me might start healing out here its like im someone else i thought that maybe i could find myself if i could walk around i swear i'll leave wont take nothing but a memory from the house that built me
