  • Came in like the breeze,
    I felt it in my knees
    Never will it leave
    Each day it is retrieved

    Seems like yesterday
    Your eyes craved this way
    Into my soul you stared
    And bored down every fear

    We built our own house, own house
    With the hands over our hearts
    And we swore on that day
    That it'll never fall apart

    We built our own house, own house
    With our hands over our hearts
    And we swore on that day
    That it'll never fall apart
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    With our hands over our hearts
    Will never fall apart-art-art

    Wake up to the sun
    Clouds always come undone
    You give the light I need
    Like water to a seed

    Wading in until
    One to talk to be real
    And prove me wrong it seems
    A heart can truly gleam

    We built our own house, own house
    With our hands over our hearts
    And we swore on that day
    That it'll never fall apart

    We built our own house, own house
    With our hands over our hearts
    And we swore on that day
    That it'll never fall apart
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    With the hands over our hearts
    Will never fall apart-art-art

    Take it all, take it away
    We'll still have the sun dying
    And the love that is beating
    'Till our lungs stop breathing

    Take it all, take it away
    We'll still have our riches,
    No need for stitches
    'Cause love melts the pain

    Take it all, take it away
    Take it all, take it away
    Take it all, take it away
    Take it all, take it away
    Take it all!

    We built our own house, own house
    With our hands over our hearts
    And we swore on that day
    That it'll never fall apart
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    Will never fall apart-art-art
    With our hands over our hearts
    Will never fall apart-art-art Writer/s: AMANDA LEE DUFFY, MARTIN TEREFE
