Buildings

歌詞

He was a husband who drove his wife home drunk from the parties He was a husband who drove his wife home And in the car, he would lean her head gently against the side-door window And in the bathroom, he would hold her hair back and hope Saying, oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Ohh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings So tall these days And in the morning, she'd wake up and Crouch recollections all day, but She would always, always wake up the next morning He'd take one look at her and say, "oh oh, it's okay" And her conscience would issue yet another last warning Saying, oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Ohh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings So tall these days And she would ask for time And she'd ask for time And she'd ask for time And she'd ask for time And she would beg for time And she'd beg for time And call it a gift And he would give her time And he'd give her time And he'd give her time And he'd give her time But time is not given and time is not taken It just sifts through its sift But time is not given and time is not taken It just sifts through its sift... Sifts through it's sift Just sifts through its sift Oh... Sifts through its sift Just sifts through its sift When we had coffee and coffee and coffee and coffee And coffee and coffee some more He'd go to work, and she'd take a sick day and rot at the core And by the time he came back, she'd scrubbed the bathrooms and made them smell like pine It would be almost as if nothing had happened And he'd give her time, oh, oh, and he'd give her time Saying, oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, don't they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings Oh, they build buildings So tall these days And she would ask for time And she'd ask for time And she'd ask for time She'd beg for time And she would beg for time And she'd beg for time And call it a gift And he would give her time And he'd give her time And he'd give her time And he'd give her time But time is not given and time is not taken It just sifts through its sift But time is not given and time is not taken It just sifts through its sift... Oh, sifts through its sift Sifts through its sift Ohhh-oo-ooooh Oh, sifts through its sift Sifts through its sift He was a husband Drove, Time Home, Time Car, oh, core Core sick day Pour coffee Core warning Last warning He was a husband Time, Pine Scrub, Scrub Bathroom, Lean Hair, Back Car, Window Hope, Time Give Don't they Build buildings Tall these days
