You and I will build a house,
Build it from the inside out,
Build it by the water's edge,
Rest it on the riverbed.
It will rise before our eyes,
Stand until the day we die,
House of dreams,
House of dreams...
We will build our house of stone,
Leave the living trees alone,
Every inch of stone we'll cover,
With leaves of ivy, linked like lovers.
Friends will come and stand amazed,
Staring at the house we've raised,
House of dreams,
House of dreams...
Into every room the sun will find a way,
We will live there growing like each other every day,
Like stone and ivy.

House of dreams...
If you'll build this house with me,
We will find the willow tree,
Let you kiss away my doubts,
Kiss my heart into my mouth.
Looking down we'll see the ground
Where our house will soon be found,
It will rise.
House of dreams...
