Martina McBride "Loves The Only House"

Not only is Martina McBride a wonderful singer and gorgeous at that, she definitely has a way of touching people’s hearts and reaching out to people with her lyrics. There are many of Martina Mcbride’s songs that have a deeper meaning if you just take a step back and listen to the lyrics. This song by Martina McBride “Loves The Only House” is a song that says that love is the only way you can get rid of the pain in your life, it doesn’t have to be a marriage or a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship either, they type of love Martina is relating to in this song is the love and relationships between friends, neighbors, and strangers. Please take the time to read the lyrics and hopefully you can spread these lyrics on and the love on to a stranger. The lyrics are:

"I was standing in the grocery store line
The one they marked express
When this woman came through with about 25 things
And I said "don't you know that more is less"
She said "This world is moving so fastI just get more behind every day
And every morning when I make my coffee
I can't believe my life's turned out this way"

All I could say was...Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain
He was walking by the other day and
I said"Hey baby how you been?
Yeah, I got me a little girl now and she's 4 years old and she's got her daddy's little grin
You only wanted what you can't have
And baby you can't have me nowI gave me heart to another
Yeah I'm a mother and he's a father
And we're a family And we've got each other
And I found out the hard way that...

"Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain
You drive three miles from all this prosperity, down across the river and you see a ghetto there
And we got children walking around with guns
And they got knives and drugs and pain to spare
And here I am in my clean, white shirt
With a little money in my pocket and a nice warm homeA
nd we got teenagers walkin' around in a culture of darkness, livin' together alone
All I can say is...

Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain
And I can't explain it and I can't understand
But I'll come down and get my hands dirty and together we'll make a stand
Somewhere cross the parking lot some bands playin out of tune
City streets are gonna burn if we don't do somethin soon
And senorita can't quit cryin, baby's due now any day
Don Juan left, got sick of tryinNo one there to show him the way
She came down to the grocery store She said "I, I wanna buy a little carton of milk but I don't have any money"I said "hey I'll cover you honey, cause the pain's gotta go somewhere"
Yeah the pain's gotta go someplace
So come on down to my house

Don't you know that
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world
Love's the only house big enough for all the pain"
