Dan + Shay - Bigger Houses (Official Music Video)
LISTEN TO THE NEW ALBUM:
danandshay.lnk...
LYRICS:
Used to dream about buying that bigger house sitting on top of some hill
Losing sleep about filling my bank account wondering if I ever will
But the older I get I just care less and less ‘bout keeping up with people named Jones
If you don’t fill it up with somebody that you love it ain’t ever gonna feel like home
There’s always gonna be a higher high
You could chase for the rest of your life
Greener grass in the yard next door
Or a shined up Chevy little newer than yours
You’re never gonna fill an empty cup if what you got’s still not enough
The thing about happiness I’ve found is
It don’t live in bigger houses
I can hear the kids making little footsteps running down the hallway upstairs
I can see the dogs playing in the back yard through the kitchen window right there
Maybe life’s kinda more bout a swing on the porch holding her while the sun disappears
Why would I wanna be anywhere else in the world when my whole world is sitting right here
#DanAndShay #BiggerHouses #SaveMeTheTrouble

[@o.d.kay633]

As a financial planner, I get to interact with people and their financial goals. Whether they have $100,000 or 10 million, the happiest ones are always the content ones. I've met people at both ends of the spectrum that are miserable because they keep wanting more and are never, ever, satisfied. It's usually to the detriment of those closest to them and their own real health. I often talk about the lady at the well that Jesus met: there are so many things we try to fill up our lives with but never truly lead to fulfillment (It's empty, temporal satisfaction). Love this song!

[@SandeepArepally-hc6xu]

And "content" is where I found myself on Settles Hill....

[@JGinfo1618]

Amen. Remember health is wealth. Spend your life making precious memories with those you love instead of making materialistic assets that you can't take with you . ❤❤

I broke down the other day because I’m the only one of my friends who doesn’t own a home. They have a lot more than me and I have been feeling unworthy because of it. I heard this in the car and it made me cry. It’s the message I needed to hear. Thank you for this beautiful song 💜🙏🏼

That's right. You don't need a bigger house (of worship). Megachurches aren't necessary. "Where two or three are gathered in my name..."

[@boofy40]

Same!!! 🙏🏽

[@aMuenchGrinch]

After losing both parents in the past two years... I have found that happiness isn't found by keeping any of their possessions or belongings even the ones that are super sentimental. I don't long to have or hold their belongings, just them, and I know I will when it's my time to go. Family is everything to me, that's my happiness!

[@Manicagent]

Nobody remembers what house you lived in or cars you drove after you die.. character is what matters..

[@bonniemangels9439]

Aw that is so beautiful!

[@FORTNITE_LIVE478]

When you die you can't take possessions with you. Enjoy what you have and be grateful.

[@ilvnhiulam]

This song remind me of my brother. He wants a bigger house, a better life, a "high quality" life with expensive food, expensive clothes brands, expensive entertainments. And finally, he choose to leave me to have that life, he moved with his lover. But all I want is having good times with him, playing games together, watching movies together, talking sh*t things about another person lols, etc. All I want is just he staying with me. What I seek for is not in a bigger house. The lyrics of this song remind me so much about our story.

[@ragey12]

I have a friend that once told me that “if you don’t learn contentment now, when you get what you think you need, you still won’t be content”. It’s because true contentment is found in Jesus, and if you’re contentment if found in Him then it will transcend all circumstances.

[@Samantha_annie_music]

Yes! So true ❤

[@terricouglewerley6682]

Amen! I could live in a 100 square foot home and be content.Jesus is my rock 🙏💜🙏

[@distinctpets6804]

I've heard that before....beautiful phrase 😢

[@edgeprobability]

contentment is complacency. gratitude is one thing, but being content means you're staying the same.

[@jjolamp]

I heard this song for the first time today. My husband is away working hard to provide for us more often than he's home. The way this song has reduced me to a puddle of tears in the middle of my kitchen floor while putting away groceries is incredibly telling of the way music can connect to our very souls and experiences. I'm so proud of him and grateful for his sacrifices so we can have that bigger home, but it's sure hard on the heart missing a big piece every day of the love that fills that home.

[@emilymccormack9567]

This was the sweetest thing 😢❤ much love to you all

[@boofy40]

My husband also works away from home so I’m with ya with the puddle of tears😢. Stay strong!

[@pattistanley2612]

Y'all need to pray together with your spouse and re-evaluate your lives. What is first in your lives? God, family, or the material things in your life? Believe me, I speak from 45 years of marital experience. Having all the fineries, the bigger houses will never give back to the time one spends building a foundation with your children. My oldest sons missed time with their Dad. They are blessed to spend time with him now, in their 40's, and he's in his 60's... seek the Lord now, while it is still called today! This life goes way to fast, you won't care what you own, you will care about your relationships, with God, your spouse, and children... Mom Of Many

[@azimus1776]

Good men love though sacrifice - it would change them to ask them not to - you've got a keeper.

[@eeveelynnashes]

We were in a similar boat.. My husband took a big pay cut to come off the road.. He don't do as much as we used too.. But we still eat good and pay the bills. I'm Happier. I'm content. I love my little house with my wild growing garden. So happy!!!

[@DeniseCrump-uf3fz]

Yes, I believe that is so true. I'm 66. I believe that is true. The smaller house MAKES family come together. Bigger the house, the move space to separate. Love this song. Everyone needs to go back to old school ways.

This song hits home,while raising my children I always felt as if what I provided wasn't enough, but the older I get I realize the kids didn't care about material things, they just wanted to spend time with us,I am grateful I made memories instead of chasing money,because time with loved ones is something we cannot get back .

[@treysean14]

I live in a town where many people have HUGE homes (including my son's girlfriend). I have a small house and always worried how my kids would feel. They really don't care. And when it is time for his friends to get together, they always choose my house. It's the memories made not the size of the house.

[@SaraMiller-gw3hu]

Amen happiness doesn’t come from bigger houses!❤❤

[@levitheonlylevi2047]

In the event anybody missed it, and it seems from the comments that many have, the point is obviously being grateful for whatever it is you might have... down to nothing at all. Happiness is found in your heart and mind, not in the things that may or may not surround you. Couldn't agree more. I find the days I am grateful, for everything, anything. These are the good days. May you all be so blessed as to have your every second of every minute of every day grateful.

[@mkcLunschin]

My husband is active duty navy and also going on deployment this Saturday. While we’ve always wanted more out of life itself, we’ve never aimed to be wealthy in money but in love and life. This song represents our love for each other, our kids and the life we built. Currently sobbing on my drive home…

Man rascal flatts is still killing it with the hits after all these years.

[@LongShen1883]

This song makes me cry, it's a reminder of what is really important and it's not always a bigger house, though likely the people you call family, whether they're really family or a few really close friends.

[@numbernine3436]

I asked a realtor once why older couples buy huge houses.. her response TAXES.. he may or may not have wanted a bigger house. If you earn decent money you hv to spend it on the few things that are a tax deduction or hand it over every April 15th

[@maryhawken817]

[@AprilHughes-h4u]

I had no idea this song had been out for a year or more. I've only heard it a couple of times on the radio and even then I would always catch it at the end of the song until yesterday. It came on the radio and I listened from the beginning to the end and all I can say is wow... definitely my new favorite song! I didn't have much growing up but I never went about. I got married very young and struggled for a long time. We finally bought an older mobile home on some property when my children were young, my son was about five and my daughter was two. We raised our children in that house until my son was 19 and my daughter was 16 years old. I wished and wanted a bigger better nicer house for years and years and years. In 2009 myself and both of my kids were in a bad wreck and I thank God they were both okay. I was okay but I was left with a neurological disease that has no cure for the rest of my life. Afterwards there was a big lawsuit and I was awarded a good amount of money, enough to buy a brand new modular home. I picked out every single thing I wanted from 9 ft ceilings to the kind of flooring I wanted I designed my enormous walk-in closet so many upgrades and every extra add-on I could get even the way it was built with extra insulation the best windows you can get. I got the whole nine yards and then some! At that point I had been married foreclosed to 23 years and after getting my beautiful brand new home right before my 29th anniversary I found out my husband had been seeing someone else and he filed for a divorce. After raising our kids in that little old house happily for so many years I got what I wanted (a new house) lost my entire life of almost 33 years together in an instant. Both of my children are grown married with kids of their own and I sit here day after day all alone in this big beautiful house. I live everyday in pain with a chronic illness that requires so much medication just to be comfortable enough to get through every day and every night 😢 So be careful what you want and wish for because you might get it but not in the way you imagined! Especially when what you had was already enough. And that my friends is what this song is all about. Don't take anything for granted and be grateful to our Heavenly Father for everything you have even if it's just a little old house, because that little old house was always filled with the most important things...love and happiness❤

Made a series of bad personal life decisions that ‘looked’ good to other people that left me feeling lonelier than ever. All I can say is that money doesn’t keep you warm at night and when you’re old and gray it’s not going to care if you’re sick and dying. Hold onto the ones that love you. ❤

I love your songs

[@brittab2057]

I've had both. My husband and i lived in a 3,000 sq home when we first got married. Most the time, it felt empty and wasted. Many of the rooms we seldom went in. High property taxes, high maintenance, Our lives went into caring for that home rather than each other. We now live in a 700 sf home. We could afford something bigger but never saw the need; although if I had known we'd have a baby, maybe I would have looked at homes slightly bigger Regardless We're quite happy here. Life is what you make of it. Less material things mean you can focus on cherishing your people easier and making memories in simple joys ❤
