House of Cliches
They say home is where the heart is
So I built us a house of cliches
Cut out the electricity,
Because they say love is blind
Changed all the clocks to 11:11 and took out the batteries
Because that’s when they say wishes come true
Built an aquarium with only one goldfish inside
Because who needs plenty of fish in the sea?
Painted a solar system on our walls
Because I love you to Pluto and back
Tattooed your initials in a heart on my elbow
So that I can always keep your heart up my sleeve
Played music without rhythm on our stereo system
So you can get used to the sound of my heart skipping a beat
Stock up all of our shoes on the lowest shelf
Because I’m head over heels for you
There are no stairs
Because there is no falling out of love in this house
Stocked up on lipstick and mascara
So we can always kiss and makeup
Never need a lighter
Cause we’re a match made in heaven
I’d buy one of those globes that never stops spinning
Because our love makes the world go round
There is no love lost here
Our house will have curves
Because every doorknob is a love handle.
