This Old House

(One, two, three)

I learned right here in this kitchen
How to fix a leak
And I know where I should place my foot
So these old stairs don't creek
And I can find my way 'round in the dark
Quiet as a mouse
There's a lotta things I've learned in this old house

I learned how to say, "I love you"
And what it really means
And I learned to see the beauty
In all the little things
And I got to see life's miracles
Spring out from the ground
There's a lotta things I've learned in this old house

I learned happiness is waiting
When I stop looking for more
And we watched our children take the very
First breaths on this floor
And I learned to let her pour out love
When I don't deserve an ounce
There's a lotta things I probably wouldn't know by now
Without this old house, ooh

I know wherever we're together
We can call it home
But there's something 'bout this little place
That we live for so long
And whatever's 'round the corner
I know we're glory bound
If I use the things I learned in this old house

I learned happiness is waiting
When I stop looking for more
And we watched our children take the very
First steps on this floor
And I learned to let her pour out love
When I don't deserve an ounce
There's a lotta things I probably wouldn't know by now
Without this old house, ooh, ooh
(Yeah-ah)

I learned happiness is waiting
When I stop looking for more
And we watched our children sing the very
First songs on this floor
And I learned to let her pour out love
When I don't deserve an ounce
There's a lotta things I probably wouldn't know by now
Yeah, there's a lotta things I probably wouldn't know by now
Without this old house
