[Verse 1] I used to dream about the light in someone else's home, wondering if that warm glow meant they'd found what I didn't know. From the sidewalk every window looked like love was living there, while inside my small world, I was taught to carry fear. I spent years believing home was somewhere I hadn't reached. [Pre-Chorus] Then I found the light wasn't waiting somewhere else — we were always meant to build it together. [Chorus] Come build a Merry Home, where mindful, empathetic love restores you. Come build a Merry Home, where healing ourselves matters, everywhere. One honest word, one open heart, one helping hand at a time, we become the light we were searching for all along. Together we're building a Merry Home. [Verse 2] The records tell the story — not of perfect people, just ordinary people who kept showing up. Every letter, every photograph, every voice through time reminds us hope can pass from one heart to the next. These aren't just memories — they're blueprints for the heart. [Bridge] Home is more than walls and windows. Home is the quiet place within. Where honesty can breathe, where empathy can grow, where healing begins. I searched for home in other people, other places. Then I found the light I admired in their windows had always been waiting to be kindled in me. And once it was lit, I could help light the way for others. [Final Chorus] Come build a Merry Home, where mindful, empathetic love restores you. Come build a Merry Home, where healing ourselves matters, everywhere. Every story we preserve becomes another light in the window. Every life we touch becomes another place of welcome. Home is not something we find — home is not outside us. Home is the light we awaken within ourselves, and together we carry it into the world, one restored relationship at a time. [Outro] Together we're building a Merry Home. other light in the window. Every life we touch becomes another place of welcome. Home is not something we find — home is not outside us. Home is the light we awaken within ourselves, and together we carry it into the world, one restored reality at a time. [Outro: M+D humming harmony fading with fiddle, final line spoken softly] (M+D) Together we're building a Merry Home.
