Build Me A House

I’ve seen horses run in wild open fields
I saw rainbows fall on earth with nothing left to say
I’ve listened to the birds, been staring at the moon
I’ve felt the deepness of love that didn’t seem to end

But happiness is such a short thing
I’m stumbling in the sunlight now
I’m falling to the ground
I lost my senses in all those deserts
I’m walking naked and wounded now
In these early city streets, so daddy

Build me a house, build me a house
Like you did when you were lost and lonely
Build me a house, build me a house
For summer days and shining hours
Get me a roof, get me a roof
For winter evenings by the chimney corner
Give me walls, give me walls
Curled and soft like midnight lovers

The rain wants to drown me in my blood
I’m stuck in a mud of confusion
I’m crying desperately
I’ve been told that relationships are nothing
I’ve got no faith, I’ve got no hope
I’ve got no love to give, so daddy

I’m just searching for a better place for me
It’s hard to deal with so many different feelings
I am nothing
Yet I’m everything

I am everything
I’m a part of this world
I can shine, I can be something
I can be someone out there
