This Will Be Our Home

Close your eyes, my darling
And let me sweep you off your feet
There’s a home in the meadow
And it’s a home you ought to meet

This will be our threshold
To our home of joy and peace
This will be the place
Where our sorrows are released

I know the walls are for now a little empty
But you’ve the eye of an artist
So let’s paint the walls with laughter
Until not a spot is missed

Entwine your treasures on the shelves with mine
And hang your dresses by the mirror
I’ve never heard my heart sing
The way it is now that you’re here

This, oh this, this will be our home

For tonight let’s leave the dishes in the sink
And our shoes by the bottom stair
For dancin’ in the kitchen’s better
When your feet are bare

And one day we’ll own a piano
And a fireplace where all the music will go
Up through the chimney
Oh we’ll play for all the stars

This, oh this, this will be our home

And one day we’ll add a room or two
For little feet to come pattering through
But for now, this home will just hold me and you

And our home may soon change places
As we bound mountains
And walk on oceans without fear
But for now our adventure lies here
Oh for now, our adventure lies here

This, oh this, this will be our home
This, oh this, this is our home
