Two Houses

Well mom found her a new place to live

and dad found him a new girlfriend

looks like everybody's moving on

and it's hey look on the bright side kid

now you ve got two Christmases

and it's every other weekend from now on

Yeah, but all i want

is the way it was

when love would always last forever

and families stayed together

back to the day before two houses

when you held my hands when i was little

before i got caught in the middle

somewhere in between two houses

cause these two houses

sure don't feel like home

Wide eyed wonder grows up fast

trust is shy and nothing lasts

and im thinking maybe it was all my fault

And will i ever get back to

The innocence that i once knew

Before that summer turned into the fall

But when i close my eyes

I go back in time

When love would always last forever

And families stayed together

Back to the day before two houses

When they held my hands and i was little

Before I got caught in the middle

Somewhere in between two houses

Cause these two houses

Sure don't feel like home

I heard about love that never leaves

So I'm asking you to show me

And talkin to you down here on my knees

Feels like you've always known me

When love would always last forever

And families stayed together

Back to the day before two houses

When you held my hands when i was little

Before I got caught in the middle

Somewhere in between two houses

These two houses

These two houses

But tonight my heart has finally found a home
