[Verse 1] Italianhippie, forty-three You and me in Montreal Little apartment, stacked up dreams Cat food tins along the wall Got Suzy in oh-nine And Poussiere beside her then Two small kittens, bright-eyed sparks Now one sleeps where seasons end [Pre-Chorus] Every penny, every day Folded up and put away For a patch of open ground For a dawn with no more pounds And I still ask the sky What I never say out loud [Chorus] When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) When will we get our little farm? Suzy needs a softer yard Poussiere, I miss you hard When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) [Verse 2] You watch anime at night PC games and stolen peace Weed smoke curling through the room While Suzy naps across your knees And every bill we paid Was one more brick, one more mile You never wanted gold Just a porch and cat-filed smiles [Pre-Chorus] But guilt sits heavy too Poussiere never knew A house with room to roam A little fence, a little home And Suzy’s fur is getting grey I fear the years will take her too [Chorus] When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) When will we get our little farm? Suzy needs a softer yard Poussiere, I miss you hard When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) [Bridge] If I could, I’d build it now A window for the rain A bowl by the back door And your name beside the frame Let Poussiere rest in light Let Suzy chase the weeds Let our hands come home at last To the place our hearts believe [Final Chorus] When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) When will we get our little farm? Suzy needs a softer yard Poussiere, I miss you hard When will we get our little farm? (our little farm) When will we get our little farm? I’m still saving, still holding on
