I wasn't prepared, but it's not over, it's not over
And as I get older, all the people I love, are getting closer to meOver the sun, over the sea, all the people I want to meetOver the sun, over the sea, all the people I love are always close to me

Take me back to the house where I grew up again
I remember every moment shared
Times, they change, but the walls remain the same
We were never frightened, cold or scared

Whatever happened to the pictures on the wall?
The scarf you made when the snow began to fall?
The pen marked doorway where the kids were growing tall?
We made this house a happy home

Take me back to the garden of those summer days
Dens to build and new places to hide
These are memories that make me smile always
You were fearless, I was by your side

Whatever happened to the clock that used to chime?
The creaky floorboards on the stairs we used to climb
I’d love to see us as we were just one more time
We made this house a happy home

Whatever happened to the markings on the tree
The summer stretching as far as we could see
I’d love to see us as we were just you and me
This house it was a happy home
This house it was a happy home
