We Went Looking

We went looking for our first home,                                                                              when I found one decaying house all alone.                                                                The first one had a huge porch,                                                                                    it looked like it had seen a torch.                                                                                    Down this street one had the door and a window out,                                                  must have been from a drought.
Walking through a garden of ferns the next day,                                                            we found one with a roof of gray.
Then we got inside,                                                                                                        I saw a huge staircase and cried.
The rosette ornament caught my eye,
now with whispers I say lets buy.
