Naomi Johnson - Bricks Make Houses Lyrics

Bricks Make Houses Lyrics[Verse 1]
We drove through that part of town
Where the trees are in a row and all the porches wrap around
Just to see the lights at Christmas
And I'd whisper to my sister, "What's it like to live like this?"

[Pre-Chorus]
We went home to beans and rice
Around the table, hours passed
We said our prayers goodnight and fell asleep fast

[Chorus]
We were barely getting by
But we forgot most of the time
We weren't broken, we were just a little broke
And I feel rich now looking back
Because of who, not what we had
I learned love ain't built with stacks of painted stone
Bricks make houses, people make homes

[Verse 2]
We shared beds and we shared shoes
Our parents were nomads, we were always on the move
We might not've always made the rent
But damn we sure made memories everywhere we went

[Pre-Chorus]
With pencil markings on the wall
And Mother May I down the hall
Each other's all we had and 'cause of that, we had it all

[Chorus]
We were barely getting by
But we forgot most of the time
We weren't broken, we were just a little broke
And I feel rich now looking back
Because of who, not what we had
I learned love ain't built with stacks of painted stone
Bricks make houses, people make homes

[Bridge]
All houses have two stories that don't always align
The way they look out front, but what's going on inside?

[Chorus]
We were barely getting by
But we forgot most of the time
We weren't broken, we were just a little broke
And I feel rich now looking back
Because of who, not what we had
I learned love ain't built with stacks of painted stone
Yeah, bricks make houses, people make homes

[Outro]
Mm
