Miranda Lambert - The House That Built Me

I know they say you can't go home again I just had to come back one last time Ma'am, I know you don't know me from Adam But these hand prints on the front steps are mine

Up those stairs in that little back bedroom Is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar And I bet you didn't know under that live oak My favourite dog is buried in the yard

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing Out here, it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself

If I could just come in, I swear I'll leave Won't take nothin' but a memory From the house that built me

Momma cut out pictures of houses for years From better homes and garden magazine Plans were drawn and concrete poured Nail by nail and board by board Daddy gave life to momma's dream

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing Out here, it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself

If I could just come in, I swear I'll leave Won't take nothin' but a memory From the house that built me

You leave home, you move on And you do the best you can I got lost in this whole world And forgot who I am

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it This brokenness inside me might start healing Out here, it's like I'm someone else I thought that maybe I could find myself

If I could walk around, I swear I'll leave Won't take nothin' but a memory From the house that built me
