Playing House

from Words Aren't Enough by Rachael Burgess

/

lyrics

Verse 1:
I tried to write you a song but I am scared to sing, C Dm F G
I tried to write down some words of my feelings
And so I took out my pen but the words didn’t flow
But basically I just wanted to let you know

Chorus:
That there’s room for your clothes in my
Extra drawers and my
Bed has an empty space
And you can share my kitchen and your
Car will fit in my garage
And we can call my house our place

I can be the mom and you can be the dad
We can share the covers when the rain pours from the clouds
We can find a church where we’ll get hitched and say our vows
Why don’t we live together
Playing house.

Verse 2:
When the sun goes down I’ll turn my nightlight on
Then we’ll turn the lights down low and play a love song
We can stay up late and just dance slow
It’s alright there’s room in here and you don’t have to go.

Chorus:
And there’s room for your clothes in my
Extra drawers and my
Bed has an empty space
And you can share my kitchen and your
Car will fit in my garage
And we can call my house our place

I can be the mom and you can be the dad
We can share the covers when the rain pours from the clouds
We can find a church where we’ll get hitched and say our vows
Why don’t we live together
Playing house.

Bridge:
We can find a church where we will both say I do
Cuz I – yes I love you
Yes I do, I do
Yes I do, I do
I do, I do love you.

Chorus:
And there’s room for your clothes in my
Extra drawers and my
Bed has an empty space
And you can share my kitchen and your
Car will fit in my garage
And we can call my house our place

I can be the mom and you can be the dad
We can share the covers when the rain pours from the clouds
We can find a church where we’ll get hitched and say our vows
Why don’t we live together
Playing house.
