House for Sale
I saw a picture today
Framed in harmony
The hook that it hang on
Made me want to play
Although the house was empty
All I could hear was smiles
The boards on which I stood
Was grass that stretched for miles
I danced atop the flowers
That decorated the edge
I even took the time
To trim the top off of the hedge
A garden given by the mirror
That just reflected you and me
I even cast a seed
In the hope to grow a tree
I even polished stars
So that they may outshine the sun
Because deep down
I know that you are one.
Well, I'll take the mirror down now, this place is not my home
I'll put it in a box and wrap it with my thoughts
Might even throw in a lucky Penny
I wouldn't want it to be alone
