House on the River

Does daydreaming happen

For the longest time

I thought it was a fantasy

A thing you only see on T.V

I thought I always wanted

A house on the river

Manly enough to not feel like a sinner

But what I wanted was a lover

A man who'd be my forgiver

A perfect life in a house on the river

Do happy-ever-after's happen

For the longest time

I thought it was a fallacy

A thing only saints receive

Only saints receive

I thought I always wanted

A house on the river

Manly enough to not feel like a sinner

But what I wanted was a lover

A man who'd be my forever

The perfect life in a house on the river

Just a little house on the river

The river, the river
