House Of A Thousand Dreams Lyrics

He says, '€œI'm just a man

I work with my hands

But lately no work has been around

I wish that I could put more on the table

Provide the life I'm sure my family dreams about'€?



'€œBut there's cracks in all the walls and all the windows

And the flies, they find their way in through the screens

I just pray that hope will go on living

In this house of a thousand dreams'€?



She says, '€œMy husband's a good man

Gives all that he can

But I know he thinks he's let me down

I just want him and the children to be happy

It's not always easy but it's all I dream about'€?



'€œSo I'll find some yard sale curtains for the windows

And I'll sew some yellow trim along the seams

And I'll keep praying, hope will go on living

In this house of a thousand dreams'€?



The boy says, '€œMy daddy's a strong man

My momma, she loves him

And they love my brother and sister and me

Sometimes at night we lay out in the backyard

And take turns wishing on the first star we see'€?



'€œAnd the crickets always sing outside the windows

And I love to feel the wind blow through the screens

And I sure hope that we can live forever

In this house of a thousand dreams'€?



'€œYeah, I sure hope that we can live forever

In this house of a thousand dreams'€?
