My House Songtext
von Matilda the Musical Original Cast

This roof keeps me dry when the rain falls
This door helps to keep the cold at bay
On this floor I can stand on my own two feet

On this chair I can write my lessons
On this pillow I can dream my nights away
And this table, as you can see, well, it′s perfect for tea

It isn't much but it is enough for me
It isn′t much but it is enough...

On these walls I hang wonderful pictures
Through this window I can watch the seasons change
By this lamp I can read, and I, I am set free!

And when it's cold outside I feel no fear!
Even in the winter storms, I am warmed by a small but stubborn fire
And there is no-where I would rather be

It isn't much but it is enough for me
It isn′t much but it is enough for me


For this is my house!
This is my house!
It isn′t much but it is enough for me

This is my house!
This is my house!
It isn't much but it is enough

(Don′t cry ...)
And when it's cold and bleak

(Please don′t cry) I feel no fear

Even in the fiercest storms!
(Please don't cry ...)

I am warmed (Let me wipe)
By a small but stubborn fire! (away your tears!)

(Forgive me) Even when outside it′s freezing

(I didn't want to desert you) I don't pay much heed

(I know that I hurt you) I know that everything I need is in here

It isn′t much but it is enough for me
It isn′t much but it is enough for me
