Lyrics

1. Everyone longs for a home of their own
   What a Heaven on earth it must be
   Many may sigh for a castle of stone
   Still there’s only one love nest for me

Refrain:
Just a little white house
With the little green blinds
At the end of Honeymoon Lane
Just a little white gate
That early and late
Seems to say, “Won’t you please call again”
You leave troubles outside
And your joys just begin
When the little front door
Whispers “Won’t you come in
To the little white house
When the little green blinds
At the end of Honeymoon Lane”

2. When you are thru with the cares of the day
   When the sun slowly sinks in the West
   Footsteps grow lighter as they lead the way
   To a haven where you will find rest
