See This House
by Michael Omartian

See this house I've built.
It stands so strong,
It took so long.

Placed so high on this hill.
No one sees in,
They never will.

Board by board I willed the walls into place,
And the roof went on with my dreams.
As nice as it is on the outside,
You know it's still not all what it seems.

Inside it's all run down.
Lonely and bare,
Dark everywhere.
Confusion all around.
Things to be sold.
Love to be found.

Down the hall, that room's been locked up for years.
And neglect has misplaced the key.
It's full of memories I bought for a price,
At a time when nothing came free.

But you.......
Opened the door.
And there was light like there's never been before.
Then you......

Gave me the key.
And there was love there to set me free and
Until you........
I was like sand,
Blown out of hand

See this house I've built.
It stands so strong,
It took so long.

Inside it's been made new.
It's all I have.
It's all for you.
