I was drivin' to town

and I passed by a house

The one with pillars on the porch

Had a sign on the door, said "For Sale"

So what the hell

I walked in, and sat down

on some strangers couch

Solid oak hardwood floors

Didn't need to see more

'Cause I could hear you in the kitchen

Playin' your guitar

All our friends coming over

Little lights in the yard

And dammit

Didn't we almost have it?

Honestly, I still don't understand it

We used to love to sit and talk and wish

And picture and plan it

Man, now I just... dammit

I think the owners could tell

I was lost in myself

So they left me alone

Said "Make yourself right at home"

I was already makin' dinner

Callin' you down the stairs

Little girl out the window

Hear her laughin' out there

Dammit

Didn't we almost have it?

Honestly, I still don't understand it

We used to love to sit and talk and wish

And picture and plan it

Man now, I just... dammit

Baby, didn't we almost have it?

Honestly, I still don't understand it

We used to love to sit, talk and wish

And picture and plan it

Man, now I just... dammit

Now I'm drivin' away

Thinking "Oh, what a shame"

You can pray, you can hope

But you just never know

I guess that two bedroom

picket fence magic

Can't ever be ours now, can it?

(Dammit)

Ooh

Honestly, I still don't understand it

Thinking how could we, coulda had it

We coulda had it

Dammit
