Anson Seabra - Gingerbread House

{Verse 1}
I fell for you like snow on the trees
On the night we walked alone at seventeen
And my cheeks were colored rose
But it wasn't from the cold
It was the way you looked at me

{Pre-Chorus}
But feelings fade and your eyes don't say
"I love you" like the way they did before
And the home we made somehow became
Just bits and broken pieces on the floor

{Chorus}
Cause we built this gingerbread house
Four walls of sugar and flour
Built up to watch it fall down
Gumdrops and tеars on the ground
So sad it goes so fast
But candy hearts wеren't made to last
I guess it's just gingerbread, a gingerbread house

{Verse 2}
I guess I didn't know what you meant to me
Till I was all alone puttin' up the tree
But the lights don't seem to glow
The way they did before
When you were next to me

{Pre-Chorus}
Cause feelings fade and I can't say
"I love you" like the way I did before
And the home we made somehow became
Just bits and broken pieces on the floor

{Chorus}
Cause we built this gingerbread house
Four walls of sugar and flour
Built up to watch it fall down
Gumdrops and tears on the ground
So sad it goes so fast
But candy hearts weren't made to last
I guess it's just gingerbread, a gingerbread house

{Post-Chorus}
Ten months I thought we were fine, lost in the time of our lives
So high the fourth of July, the seasons change (?...)
So sad it goes so fast but candy hearts weren't made to last
I guess it's just gingerbread, a gingerbread house

{Outro}
Cause we built this gingerbread house
Four walls of sugar and flour
Built up to watch it fall down
Gumdrops and tears on the ground
So sad it goes so fast
But candy hearts weren't made to last
I guess it's just gingerbread, a gingerbread house
