I can see the house we made Where you taught me how to dance We would joke that I got paid To give you plastic romance We built this home on sticks and stones And sentimental things The years have passed, the garden's grown This place was fit for kings I've walked these streets The memories of people that we knew Time is our only enemy And the only one that's true Friends will come and friends will go We'll take what we can bring It is only you I know In this place that was fit for kings You can take my beating heart to keep the time You can have my broken words and try to make them rhyme Be my compass and my map, and bring me on my way Wherever you're going, that's where I'll stay Come inside, hang up your hat Take off your coat and shoes You can rest your weary feet And put 'em where you choose And if your telephone is broken I'll try to make it ring The door's unlocked, I leave it open This place was fit for kings Rough and rocky, down this road In this god-forsaken land Seems like oh, so long ago When you went and took my hand You said, "Hey I saw you looking at me From across the room Oh, I'll take my chance-- you wanna dance?" I said, "Only if it's with you" I'll always love you, 'till the end of my days Credits
