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
