[00:09.82] It's bigger than we thought,
[00:15.53] It's taller than it ought to be,
[00:20.58] This pile of rubble and ruins
[00:30.47] The neighbors must talk.
[00:35.48] It's the worst yard on the block
[00:40.65] Just branches and boards
[00:46.00] Where walls once stood.
[00:51.07] Did it seem to you
[00:56.51] Like the storm just knew?
[00:59.86] We weren't quite finished
[01:03.62] With the roof when it started.
[01:08.79]
[01:16.63] So we build, we build
[01:27.35] We clear away what was
[01:31.98] And make room for what will be.
[01:37.86] If you hold the nails, I'll take the hammer
[01:43.22] I'll hold it still, if you climb the ladder.
[01:48.74] If you will then I'll build.
[01:55.31]
[02:03.94] On any given day
[02:08.96] We could simply walk away
[02:14.48] And let someone else hold the pieces.
[02:25.11] The lies that we tell
[02:28.75] Say it's better somewhere else,
[02:34.49] As if love flies south when it freezes.
[02:41.80]
[02:44.80] What I'm trying to say,
[02:50.03] In some clumsy way
[02:53.75] Is that it's you
[02:56.21] And only you for always.
[03:03.03]
[03:04.16] That's why we build, we build
[03:15.66] We clear away what was
[03:20.78] And make room for what will be.
[03:26.16] If you hold the nails, I'll take the hammer
[03:31.23] I'll hold it still, if you climb the ladder.
[03:36.64] If you will then I'll build.
[03:43.08]
[03:52.32] What I'm trying to say,
[03:56.45] In some clumsy way
[04:00.17] Is that it's you
[04:02.22] And only you not just for now,
[04:07.53] Not just today,
[04:11.06] But it's you and only you for always
[04:20.34]
[04:22.02] So if you hold the nails, I'll take the hammer
[04:27.94] I'll hold it still, if you climb the ladder.
[04:33.26] If you will then I'll build.
[04:42.54]
