To Build A Home

by The Cinematic Orchestra

There is a house built out of stone

Wooden floors, walls and window sills

Tables and chairs worn by all of the dust

This is a place where I don't feel alone

This is a place where I feel at home

And I built a home

For you

For me

Until it disappeared

From me

From you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

(Instrumental)

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds

There is a tree that's old as me

Branches were sewn by the colour of green

Ground had arose and passed its knees

By the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top

I climbed the tree to see the world

When the gusts came around to blow me down

I held on as tightly as you held onto me

I held on as tightly as you held onto me

And I built a home

For you

For me

Until it disappeared

From me

From you

And now, it's time to leave and turn to dust

An artwork like this, that's made with and by the heart, very beautifully touching, and very emotional, is hard to find, nowadays (thanks to Step Up Revolution for introducing me and the world to this song). The music is beautiful, and the lyrics are breathtaking. Two thumbs up!
