(Dream house for sale maybe it's left for you
If you're among the lucky ones and that found a love that's true)

I was looking through the morning paper like a lot of us do every day
When I saw an add that caught my eye this is what it had to say
One dream house for sale it's a bargain from nothing down
And there's no closing cost for the dreams I lost when the girl I loved left town
There's five rooms and bath on an acre of land and the nursery painted pink and blue
A baby bed and a little white high chair and it's all almost brand new
There's a set out old dog in a picket fence around the yard that's full of weeds
Why just one look and it's easy to see a little love is all that it needs

(Dream house for sale if you found a love that's true)

The only thing wrong with this house of mine is the black cloud that hangs above
I guess it's there to keep out the sunshine since mine's a house without love
That's just about all there is to tell about a boy and his love that failed
Four words tell the rest of my story dream house for sale

(Dream house for sale maybe it's meant for you
If you're among the lucky ones and that found a love that's true)
