Tim Minchin - My House lyrics

[MISS HONEY] This roof keeps me dry when the rain falls This door helps to keep the cold at bay On this floor I can stand on my own two feet On this chair I can write my lessons On this pillow I can dream my nights away And this table, as you can see Well, it's perfect for tea It isn't much, but it is enough for me It isn't much, but it is enough – On these walls, I hang wonderful pictures Through this window, I can watch the seasons change By this lamp, I can read! And I . . . I am set free And when it's cold outside, I feel no fear Even in the winter storms, I am warmed By a small but stubborn fire And there is nowhere I would rather be It isn't much, but it is enough for me For this is my house This is my house It isn't much, but it is enough for me This is my house This is my house It isn't much, but it is enough – [ESCAPOLOGIST] Don't cry – [MISS HONEY] And when it's cold and bleak, I feel no fear [ESCAPOLOGIST] Please don't cry. I'm here [MISS HONEY] Even in the fiercest storms, I am warmed – [ESCAPOLOGIST] Please don't cry [MISS HONEY] By a small but stubborn fire [ESCAPOLOGIST] Let me wipe away your tears Forgive me – [MISS HONEY] Even when outside, it's freezing – [ESCAPOLOGIST] I didn't mean to desert you [MISS HONEY] I don't pay much heed [ESCAPOLOGIST] I know that I hurt you [MISS HONEY] I know that everything I need Is in here [MISS HONEY] It isn't much, but it is enough for me It isn't much, but it is enough for me
