Bigger Houses
Amy Savin

He says, Goodbye, I'll see you tonight, I'll be home a little late

She smiles and waves and says, That's ok, I'll be waiting for you, love

But she knows she'll be lonely, the kids gone to bed

And they haven't seen daddy, since they don't know when

They live on the promise that soon they'll have all that they need--

Even though there's already too many garage doors to clean

Chorus:

Still we work, chasing wealth

And we count all our gold thinking it's not enough

Living life; each his own

And we build bigger houses, but we've never been further from home.

She's on the road and making the good life; she calls home now and then

The crowds cheer, no seat is left empty; the stage has done her well

But she lies in her room, she's so lonely tonight

She's got thousands to spend but she just wants to cry

She believed them when they told her money was the way to win

Now she turns to the glass bottles calling her name once again

(chorus)

bridge:

God looking down on his people

Must wonder how

We expect all our children to learn

What we've not learned ourselves

(chorus)
