This house, built from stone
Bricks and mortar
Love and hope

(Verse)
Voices, children cry
Parents teach us
Wrong from right

(Pre-Chorus 1)
What makes your heart ache?
What makes us thankful for every day?
It' s always the brightest light
That takes you home each night

(Chorus)
Open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That?s this house
That?s this house
That?s this house

(Verse)
Peaceful, home sweet home
Stuff needs fixing but nothing?s broke
Full hearts, passing time
So glad this place is
Yours and mine

(Pré-Chorus 2)
What makes you soul warm?
What makes us be the people we?ve become?
It?s always the brightest light
That takes you home each night

(Chorus)
So open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That?s this house

(Chorus)
Open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That?s this house

(Verse)
These walls
Full of heart
Brothers, sisters
Play their part

(Verse)
From innocence to teenage fights
Christenings, weddings
This is life
This is life yea
Oh this house
This is life yea

(Chorus)
So open the doors and windows
Whole world inside these four walls
More than a building
Floor to the ceiling
A picture of love
That''s this house

That''s this house
That''s this house
That''s this house
That''s this house
