To Build A Home
The Cinematic Orchestra w/ Patrick Watson

				
	/		

		
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...

				

Cause, 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........

		
Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
			
There is a tree as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
Ground had arose and passed it's 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........
