House of Their Dreams

The corner office was his dream
More like a prison now it seems

Somewhere on the corporate climb

He left his warrior behind

Now he is just a worker at a daily grind
He steels his years and numbs his mind

His strength is fading his dreams are bind

Cause this is not the life he had in mind

She lies awake because he's up all night
Looking at a screen that tells him lies
But the grass is greener on the other side

So she's at the gym fighting off the years
To be young again and calm her fears
That she'd never be enough for him
Just as a young man catches her eye

Now they are trapped in their own worlds
With their wars
With their cell phones
And their closed doors
It's funny how quiet it peceful that seems

But their all alone together

In the house of their dreams

Little sister she's
A sixteen year old princess
Lost somewhere between the swing set
And a brand new crush his chariot awaits

And the brother's room is glowing
With trophy's to shout his name
But he trade all his high school fame
For some back yard catch with his hero again

Now they are trapped in their own worlds
With their wars
With their cell phones
And their closed doors
It's funny how quiet it peceful that seems

But their all alone together

In the house of their dreams

So now there all dressed up in Sunday best

Sit up strangers like the rest

Sing of songs of peace and rest

That Jesus freely gives

The kids look up as daddy stands

Takes his bride with trembling hands

Brother kneels at his father's side;

Princess looks in her momma's eyes

The tears tear down the walls
As daddy prays

But trapped in our own worlds
And our own wars
With our cell phones
And our closed doors

God only you can save our family

And now on this Rock we'll build

On this Rock we'll build

The house of our dreams
