Song Lyrics
It’s a rare condition this day and age
to read any good news on the newspaper page
Love and tradition of the grand design
some people say it’s even harder to find
Well then there must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls
Cause all I see is a tower of dreams
real love burstin’ out of every seam
As days go by
we’re gonna fill our house with happiness.
The moon may cry
we’re gonna smother the blues with tenderness.
When days go by
there’s room for you
room for me
for gentle hearts an opportunity
As days go by
it’s the bigger love of the family
