Lyric We Build

It s bigger than we thought
It s taller than it oughta be
This pile of rubble and ruins
The neighbors must talk
It s the worst yard on the block
Just branches and boards
Where walls stood
Did it seem to you
Like the storm just knew
We Weren t quite finished with the roof
When it started?

Chorus:
So We Build
We Build
We clear away what was
And make room for what will be
if you hold the nails, I ll take the hammer
I ll hold it still, if you ll climb the ladder
If you will, then I will build

On any given day
We could simply walk away
And let someone else hold the pieces
The lie that we tell
Says that it s better somewhere else
As if love flies south when it freezes
What I m tryin to say
In some clumsy way is that
It s you and only you for always

Chorus:
That s why We Build
We Build
We clear away what was
And make room for what will be
if you hold the nails, I ll take the hammer
I ll hold it still if you ll climb the ladder
If you will, then I will build

What I m tryin to say
In some clumsy way is that
It s you and only you for always
Not just for now, not just today
But it s you and only you
For always

So if you hold the nails, I ll take the hammer
I ll hold it still if you ll climb the ladder
And if you will, then I will build
