A Place To Call Your Own

A place to call your own
The things you’d never know
Until you’re out there and alone
You’re digging in the dirt
In laying a foundation
Where you’ll build upon your life

And soon you’ll take a wife
Together you will circle around an ever growing light
When everything is right

It’s nice to see you smile
You know I haven’t seen you this excited in a while
And just as it should be
When everything it flows from the river to the sea
It’s just as it should be

How far you’ve come
I can’t believe it
It seems like yesterday we were in the backyard playing in the grass
I tried to catch you but
You move too fast
You move too fast
I never tried to catch you boy

A place to call your own
With many things to do before a house becomes a home
The story of our lives
With many years of laughter lasting deep into the night, night
And everything is right

How far you’ve come
Oh, I can’t believe it
It seems like yesterday we were in the backyard playing in the grass
I tried to catch you but
You move too fast
You move too fast
I never tried to catch you boy

I never will forget you boy
You know where you can find me
I think you make a perfect pair
I just want to be there
A place to call your own
