lyrics

A D A E
A D A E-A
In that little house by the sea
You and me will be together, forever and always happy
When life is crappy you and me can flee
to that house by the sea and that little library

and we will walk the beach
searching for debris
we can make a chair out of whatever we please
in that house by the sea
we will find peace
and we will have rooms for friends and family

I will have room for boardgames in the little tower
we will rent out rooms with breakfast
you can even take a shower
and a cellar for the pickles and dandelion wine
You can call me Tickles, I will call you Clementine

In that little house by the sea
It will be windy
I like the sound of the wind when it hits the chimney
Your hat fell in the water
when you had breakfast on the pier
but hats are not worth the risk and so it disappeared
You're cute without that hat
and now we can tell the story
of how you lost your hat, but we'll tell it with more glory
and if I can be the hero of your little tale
You can be the captain when we set sail

In that little house by the sea
You and me will be together, forever and always happy
When life is crappy you and me can flee
to that house by the sea and that little library
