You wish it would snow
And I wish we could go and feel the ocean waves upon our silly faces.
I’m afraid of the dark G
And you hold back the sharks under the bed, hold up the spread above our foolish heads.
We’ll build a fort out of what we have
If you hold the sword, I will wear the cape and the mask
together we’ll play house.
You will summon the rain
And I will turn the hurricane to frosted flakes
To sate our hungry hearts.
We’ll build a castle of frozen sand,
I’ll float your boat in the moat if you will stand upon the bow,
Together we’ll play house.
This is our home.
