We built a castle in the basement
Where we could be the kings
But it came crashing down one day
Quite the foreshadowing
So we emerged above the dirt
Like earthworms in the rain
We traced the yard, it wasn't hard
Expanding our domain
Then summer came to stake its claim
We'd dried out in the sun
Our bodies fell for water's spell
The pool was finally done
We swam its length in record time
Our limbs required sleep
So we retired to shade inside
Where home's embrace was sweet
I've got home, home, home videos
Playing reversed in my head
When this home is gone, I've got videos
That can play anytime in my head
I know that I, I, I shouldn't feel
So sad when things have to change
But I've got these videos, these videos
That will always play back just the same
Our skin grew tough as we grew up
We wandered out the door
We found new beds to lay our heads
New homes to be adored
Now we know home, home, home changes
It changes with passage of time
When this house is gone, we've got videos
That can play anytime in our heads
I hope that I, I, I don't get too sad
When we say our goodbyes
But I've got these videos, these videos
That will always stay fresh in my mind
