We’ll Buy a House

Oh
How did it come to this?
Not easy to dismiss
I'm always told
That you gotta cling to hope

Please
Tell me how it came to be?
Got a California dream
Only to see
That the lights fade easily

No
I'm surrounded by a world of no
Find it hard to breathe in slow
In and out
When you're riddled with doubt

Lost your job
And all you got
Is just a mattress on the floor
And not much more
And all you say is
"Babe
We'll buy a house someday."
"We'll buy a house someday."

Weave
In a knot of complexities
And shadows of uncertainty
An empty room
And the curtain's closing soon

But you
You always had a way to prove
That we were gonna make it through
Another night
See the morning in a new light

Find a job
Make do with what we got
"And luck was on the way,"
The hopeful say

We got too many scars
And keeping count is like numbering stars
I'm home wherever you are
When all is pulled away

Try so hard to disguise
And tell me "Everything is alright."
The rent's due in the night
Nowhere to go, but we can't stay
And all you say is
"Babe
We'll buy a house someday."
"We'll buy a house someday."

"We'll buy a house someday."
