Lyrics
House of Cards ©2023 Creative InRoads, LLC
There is a house of cards built for a lonely heart
Waiting on your love if you want the part
Come share this house of cards or we can let them fall
Just open up your heart and I will answer if you call
---------------------------------------------
Please don't let me scare you if I'm wrong to be so bold
But, like a song that must be sung, this story must be told
If you only let me, I will open up the door
To look inside so we might find what you're looking for
A house to last forever with love to share each day
A yard to fill with children so you can watch them play
A garden for your flowers and walks through springtime rain
A summer breeze to toss our hair and love will be your name
---------------------------------------------
And, on the porch a swing for two to watch the setting sun
A dinner bell to call the kids when suppertime has come
There's food upon the table, a fire to keep you warm
Laughter rings each room with light like shelter from the storm
The sun will slumber in the West and soon the moon will rise
Where angles gather up the stars to light the evening skies
The children read you fairy tales while you softly comb their hair
You kiss each child upon the cheek and listen to their prayers
---------------------------------------------
When the night has fallen and sleep is on its way
Before the dreams that fill your heart have carried you away
You look into the darkness for that kind and gentle face
Of the man who built this house to share his warm embrace
He folds his love around you to put your heart at rest
And, whispers softly with his lips a kiss upon your breast
Together you will share this bed and together you will pray
Thanking God for all these gifts and the house you share each day
Together you shall pray
---------------------------------------------
There is a house of cards built for a lonely heart
Waiting on your love if you want the part
Come share this house of cards or we can let them fall
Just open up your heart and I will answer if you call
