Two Houses by Matthew West Lyrics
Well mom found her a new place to live
And dad found him a new girlfriend
Looks like everybody's moving on
And it's hey look on the bright side kid
Now you got two Christmases
And it's every other weekend from now on
Yeah, but all I want
Is the way it was
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
When you held my hands when I was little
Before I got caught in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
Cause these two houses
Sure don't feel like home
Wide eyed wonder grows up fast
Trust is shot and nothing lasts
And I'm thinking maybe it was all my fault
And will I ever get back to
The innocence that once knew
Before that summer turned into the fall
But when I close my eyes
I go back in time
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
When they held my hands when I was little
Before I got caught in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
Cause these two houses
Sure don't feel like home
I heard about love that never leaves
So I'm asking you to show me
And talking to you down here on my knees
Feels like you've always known me
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
You were holding my hands when I was little
You were there when I was in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
These two houses
These two houses
But tonight my heart has finally found a home
And dad found him a new girlfriend
Looks like everybody's moving on
And it's hey look on the bright side kid
Now you got two Christmases
And it's every other weekend from now on
Yeah, but all I want
Is the way it was
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
When you held my hands when I was little
Before I got caught in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
Cause these two houses
Sure don't feel like home
Wide eyed wonder grows up fast
Trust is shot and nothing lasts
And I'm thinking maybe it was all my fault
And will I ever get back to
The innocence that once knew
Before that summer turned into the fall
But when I close my eyes
I go back in time
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
When they held my hands when I was little
Before I got caught in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
Cause these two houses
Sure don't feel like home
I heard about love that never leaves
So I'm asking you to show me
And talking to you down here on my knees
Feels like you've always known me
When love would always last forever
And families stayed together
Back to the day before two houses
You were holding my hands when I was little
You were there when I was in the middle
Somewhere in between two houses
These two houses
These two houses
But tonight my heart has finally found a home
