I’ve always thought of myself as a builder
Especially when it comes to my life
So I plan on the details that I prefer
And commit to getting the measurements right

I want to build our house with my own hands
With a family room of twenty by twenty-five
With a kitchen of at least two hundred square feet
And a nice big room for us to dine

I’ll build a master bedroom as big as you’d like
With a closet for everything you need
And I’ll make other bedrooms measured just right
For the kids in the family of our dreams
Let’s plan to build our lives together
With these most important measurements to keep
A love that’s forever wide
And miles of happiness deep

I’ll build a deck big enough for us to relax
And a convenient space for the grill
And somewhere just right in the yard out back
I build a playhouse for boys and girls

You can decorate it all anyway you want
I already know I love your taste
And I’ll build a fenced area for the dog
With enough room for all our kids to play

I’ll build a master bedroom as big as you’d like
With a closet for everything you need
And I’ll make other bedrooms measured just right
For the kids in the family of our dreams
Let’s plan to build our lives together
With these most important measurements to keep
A love that’s forever wide
And miles of happiness deep

You don’t need to remember all of the measurements
Except the one most important to you and me
A love that’s forever wide
And miles of happiness deep

I’ll build a master bedroom as big as you’d like
With a closet for everything you need
And I’ll make other bedrooms measured just right
For the kids in the family of our dreams
Let’s plan to build our lives together
With these most important measurements to keep
A love that’s forever wide
And miles of happiness deep
