Little Houses

A little white house in the heart of town On a little sad street, just a little run down Became a home for Bill and Sue Two newlyweds who did the best that they could do And when they brush each other passin' in the hall Sue would smile and say, "This place is pretty small" But you know love grows best in little houses With fewer walls to separate Where you eat and sleep so close together You can't help but communicate Oh, and if we had more room between us, think of all we'd miss Love grows best in houses just like this Before too long, Sue and Bill Were makin' plans for Jack and Jill Oh, happy day when the news came in But what to do when they found out Sue was having twins When they could not pass each other in the hall Well, Sue would smile and say, "This place is really really small" But you know love grows best in little houses With fewer walls to separate Where you eat and sleep so close together You can't help but communicate Oh, and if we had more room between us, think of all we'd miss Love grows best in houses just like this That little white frame house still keeps them warm Though it's been thirty-two years since the kids were born And when they look back now, they hold each other tight And whisper in each other's ears, "You know you were right" Because, love grows best in little houses With fewer walls to separate Where you eat and sleep so close together You can't help but communicate Oh, and if we had more room between us, think of all we'd miss Love grows best in houses just like this Yeah, love grows best in houses just like this
