It doesn't take a white dress, it doesn't take a fortress
Nobody needs a ring to fall in love
When I met you it was easy and I held it like a secret
Until the day I couldn't hide it anymore

I want to grow older I want to grow wiser I want to grow flowers
In a house that's made of you
To sit and watch the sunset and get some wrinkles on my forehead
I want to build fires in house that's made of you

It didn't take a long time to know you were the green light
That night you grabbed my hand as we were driving downtown fast
Your daddy had a big scare your mom was sitting right there
We cried as we watched them hold each other close

We can drive the kids to school read em stories from our bed
Kiss em on their little tiny foreheads
I want to lose touch with what's hip and what's current
I want to go crazy in a house that's made of you
