Artist/Band: Nichole Nordeman
Lyrics for Song: We Build
Lyrics for Album: Ultimate Collection [2009]



It's bigger than we thought

It's taller than it oughta be

This pile of rubble and ruins

The neighbors must talk

It's the worst yard on the block

Just branches and boards

Where walls stood



Did it seem to you

Like the storm just knew

We weren't quite finished with the roof

When it started?



Chorus:

So we build

We build

We clear away what was

And make room for what will be

If you'll hold the nails, I'll take the hammer

I'll hold it still, if you'll climb the ladder

If you will, then I will build



On any given day

We could simply walk away

And let someone else hold the pieces

The lie that we tell

Says that it's better somewhere else

As if love flies south when it freezes



What I'm tryin' to say

In some clumsy way is that

It's you and only you for always



Chorus:

That's why we build

We build

We clear away what was

And make room for what will be

If you'll hold the nails, I'll take the hammer

I'll hold it still if you'll climb the ladder

If you will, then I will build



What I'm tryin' to say

In some clumsy way is that

It's you and only you for always

Not just for now, not just today

But it's you and only you

For always



So if you hold the nails, I'll take the hammer

I'll hold it still if you'll climb the ladder

And if you will, then I will build
