If We Made The Rules Lyrics

A picket fence and a quiet yard

A wrap-around porch by a used car

Great big windows and a porch light we leave on

Maybe a dog with curly hair

Four to six kids when we get there

I'll write you songs until we're millionaires

We sit on your roof

Dream until our dreams are foolproof

Wishing it could be, but only if we made the rules

We're so young, it's so true

But as long as it's me and you

I know it'll be, but only if we make the rules

A perfect date for every week

A little garden for early spring

Taking the kids so they'll see grandma and grandpa

We'll make a list of where we wanna go

Yearly trips when it starts to snow

Ready to leave cause we just already miss home

We sit on your roof

Dream until our dreams are foolproof

Wishing it could be, but only if we made the rules

We're so young, it's so true

But as long as it's me and you

I know it'll be, but only if we make the rules

We're ninety-nine and life is good

Everything's gone just like it should

At the end of every day, we're just thinking about

We're only here today cause that night we

Sat on your roof

Dreamed until our dreams were foolproof

Wishing it could be, but only if we made the rules

We were so young, it was so true

But as long as it was me and you

We knew it would be, but only if we made the rules

The rules

We knew it would be, but only if we made the rules
