a face to call home

i heard that john mayer sang:

I'm an architect

Of days that haven't happened yet
I can't believe a month is all it's been
You know my paper heart
The one I filled with pencil marks
I think I might've gone and inked you in

Little by little, inch by inch
We built a yard with a garden in the middle of  it
It ain't much but it's a start
You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart
And a face to call home
A face to call home
You got a face to call home

So good you didn't see

The nervous wreck I used to be

You'd never know a man could feel so small

And you never look at me

Like I'm a liability

I bet you think I've never been at all

Little by little, inch by inch

We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it

And it ain't much, but it's a start

You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart

And a face to call home

A face to call home

You got a face to call home

Maybe I could stay a while,

Maybe I could stay a while,

Maybe I could stay a while,

I'm talkin' like all of the time

Little by little, inch by inch,

We built a yard with a garden in the middle of it,

And it ain't much, but it's a start,

You got me swaying right along to the song in your heart

"well, sometimes home is a person. "
