about

I wrote this song shortly after my husband and I moved into our first house as a snapshot of life at the time, but also about hopes and dreams for the future. Now with our first baby due in just a few weeks, it feels like the perfect time to put this song out into the world!

lyrics

We moved into a little house on the corner
Now we’ve got a backyard and a mortgage
Ooo
Just me and you

You swept me up and carried me through the doorway
Just when I thought I couldn’t love you more babe
Ooo
I do

They said
They said
That we wouldn’t make it

We took a roll of the dice
Now look at us building a life
I don’t know if these 4 walls
Are big enough for all this love

Nothing is perfect I know
But we’ll plant us a garden that grows
And we’ll see the seasons change
And celebrate

We’ll fill these rooms
With tears and laughter
Darlin this is ever after

Second baby's on the way
I been working nights you been working days
But it's worth it
Ooo
Still me and you

The night we met and you proposed, thought you were joking
5 years down the road and we're golden
Ooo
It's like you knew

You said, you said
That we'd make it
And we did

We took a roll of the dice
Now look at us building a life
I don’t know if these 4 walls
Are big enough for all this love

Nothing is perfect I know
But we’ll plant us a garden that grows
And we’ll see the seasons change
And celebrate

We’ll fill these rooms
With tears and laughter
Darlin this is ever after

I will love you
By your side through
It all
I do

I will love you
My whole life through
It all
I do

We took a roll of the dice
Now look at us building a life
I don’t know if these 4 walls
Are big enough for all this love

We'll make it up as we go
Then one day when we old
Watching all the children play
We'll smile and say...

Don't think it gets any better
Darlin we got ever after
