Lyrics
House of Love
Dedicated to Dave and Danelle
We’re glad your house of love survived.
All I really need is my little box of tools
To hammer out dreams and chop saw the blues
Don’t want trouble, a bubble off plumb
Gonna do what it takes to build a house of love
I’ll bring my stud finder, kiss it for luck
Wanna keep it on the level, don’t need the flux
I’ll check all my angles, measure twice, cut once
See my heart’s been wrenched and my knuckles crunched
All I really need is my little box of tools
To hammer out dreams and chop saw the blues
Don’t want trouble, a bubble off plumb
Gonna do what it takes to build a house of love
It couldn’t be plainer, I’ll clamp on a smile
Any rough edges, well, gimme a file!
The jigs up baby, you’re in my blueprint
The future’s nailed. . . glued. . . clamped!
All I really need is my little box of tools
To hammer out dreams and chop saw the blues
Don’t want trouble, a half bubble off plumb
Gonna do what it takes to build a house of love
The jigs up baby, you’re in my blueprint
The future’s nailed. . .glued. . .clamped!
