Two thirty-four by the side of the door
Four walls and some shingles built just after the war
In the shade of a willow, near the end of the road
Might not look like much to you, but it was home
Past the driveway was the end zone, a rock was first base
A second-hand Toyota took us to outer space
An unfinished basement with room to explore
Scratch from a sword fight on the kitchen floor
I never saw just nails and wood, I'd go back there if I could
That old house was more than just foundation
It gave me wings, a dare to dream education
All those long summer nights
Under the big sky that never seemed to end
I've come a long way since then
But I'm missing that old house again
In an old laundry bin we sailed the seven seas
We searched for buried treasure, got grass stains on our knees
Slayed dragons in the backyard while dad manned the grill
Picked flowers from the garden for mom's kitchen windowsill
That old house was more than just foundation
It gave me wings, a dare to dream education
All those long summer nights
Under the big sky that never seemed to end
I've come a long way since then
But I'm missing that old house again
It never was just nails and wood, I'd go back there if I could
That old house was more than just foundation
It gave me wings, a dare to dream education
That old house was more than just foundation
It gave me wings, a dare to dream education
All those long summer nights
Under the big sky that never seemed to end
I've come a long way since then, and I'm happy where I am
I'm just missing that old house again
It made me who I am
I'm missing that old house again
