[Verse 1]
I still remember that first hello,
Like an old backroad only we could know.
You took my rough hands, all my scars,
Turned an old dream into shooting stars.
Every mile I’ve driven, every dollar I’ve saved,
Has your name written on the plans I’ve made.
[Pre-Chorus]
It ain’t about the money or the things we own,
It’s about your laughter echoing through our home.
[Chorus]
I wanna build your dreams with my own two hands,
Raise these walls together on a piece of land.
Watch the kids grow up while the seasons change,
Thank the good Lord every single day.
When the lights go down and the world fades away,
You’re still the fire that makes this heart stay.
Forever ain’t enough, if forever’s true,
’Cause my favourite place in this world is you.
[Verse 2]
We’ll plant an orchard, watch the years roll by,
Coffee on the porch as the sun meets the sky.
Every nail and board, every fence we’ll raise,
Will tell our story for the coming days.
When life gets heavy and the storms roll in,
You’ll never have to stand alone again.
[Bridge]
So take my name, my heart, my soul,
Every broken piece that made me whole.
I’ll chase your dreams like they’re mine too,
Because my future always starts with you.
[Final Chorus]
I wanna build your dreams with my own two hands,
Find that little farmhouse and our forever land.
Fill every room with love and life,
Call you my best friend, call you my wife.
When we’re old and grey with silver in our hair,
I’ll still be stealing one more kiss somewhere.
If Heaven’s anything like what we do,
I know I’ll find my way… right back to you.
[Outro]
So here’s to forever, one day at a time,
Your hand in mine until the end of the line.
The house is just timber, the land is just ground,
Home is wherever your heart is found.
Yvonne,
Everything I’m working for isn’t just a house—it’s the life we’re going to build together. I love you.
