From Our House to Yours

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I was just a little kid You became my very best friend Soon as I had done my chores I'd beat a path from our house to yours [Verse 2] One Christmas we both asked for bikes One in red, one in blue and white I'll never forget that magic morn My first ride from our house to yours [Chorus] From our house to yours Twenty-one mailboxes, twenty-one doors For ten years or more It was back and forth from our house to yours [Verse 3] One summer we both had a crush On a boy who lived down the road from us He liked me but he liked you more I watched him go from our house to yours [Verse 4] I remember the day you turned thirteen Thought you had grown too old for me But I taught you makeup, you taught me boys We burned up the phone lines from our house to yours [Chorus] From our house to yours Seven numbers, twenty-one doors For ten years or more I knew the way from our house to yours [Verse 5] I'll never forget that awful day When the moving van took you away I cried 'til my eyes were red and sore Five hundred miles from our house to yours [Verse 6] It had been a while since you crossed my mind Then a card in the mailbox at Christmas time With an evergreen wreath on a red front door Saying "lots of love from our house to yours" [Chorus] From our house to yours Too many years, too many doors But for ten years or more I knew the way from our house to yours [Tag] I knew the way from our house to yours
