I am an architect
Of days that haven't happened yet
I can't believe a month is all it's been
You know my paper heart
The one I fill with pencil marks
I think I might have gone and let you in

Little by little
Inch by inch
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much
But it's a start
You got me swaying right along
To the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

So good you didn't see
The nervous wreck I used to be
You never know a man could feel so small
And you never look at me
Like I'm a liability
I bet you think I've never been it all

Little by little
Inch by inch
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it
It ain't much
But it's a start
You got me swaying right along
To the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home
A face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
I'm talking like all of the time
Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
Maybe I can stay awhile
I'm talking like all of the time

And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home
