David LaLone - Family Altar Lyrics

This is the last trip home
Momma baked a cake for me
We're gonna sit around
Do nothing but watch TV
Burn down a tree for thee
Place it in the middle of
This desert room
May it warm our hearts to breathe
Capture a moment worth a thousand words
Celebrate these happy years

This is altar here
This is what family does
I would walk on burning coals
If that meant I had you to hold

Let's turn these desert stones into loaves of bread
Strike a match and make a toast
To love and all things funny
I want our lives filled with milk and honey
Let's forget all this worthless money

This is altar here
This is what family does
I would walk on burning coals
If that meant I had you to hold
