Texty: George Strait. Troubadour. House With No Doors.

I was there in my trailer down at the jobsite
The day that this stranger walked in
His face looked so sad and he carried a set of blueprints

And as I unrolled them, the first thing I noticed
That there were no doors in the plans
He said, ?If you build this for me then when she comes back
She?ll never be able to leave me again?

I said, ?If I did and she ever came back
Friend, tell me how would she get in?
It would just be a prison that I locked you in"

"If you couldn?t leave you?d never know if there
Was someone to love you the way that she didn?t before
There?s two things that I know for sure
It's that you can?t make a woman feel something she don?t
And you can?t build a house with no doors"

For a while he was quiet I could tell he was thinking
I thought I just ruined his day
I just couldn?t bear to see this man?s last hope slip away

So I thought real fast and I started talking
Said, ?Buddy, we?ve tried this before
And if there ain?t one, she?ll make one, either way she?ll run
And leave you a house with a hole for a door?

I said, ?If I did and she ever came back
Friend, tell me how would she get in?
It would just be a prison that I locked you in"

"If you couldn?t leave you?d never know if there
Was someone to love you the way that she didn?t before
If there?s two things that I know for sure
It's that you can?t make a woman feel something she don?t
And you can?t build a house with no doors"

No you can?t make a woman feel something she don?t
And you can?t build a house with no doors
