Testo Buildings
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 oh 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 a say baby that's ok
And her conscience would issue yet another last warning, saying;
Oh they build buildings oh they build buildings oh they build buildings oh 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 its sift
Just sifts through its sift
Sifts through its sift
Just sifts through its sift
When we'd eat 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 scrub the bathrooms and make 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;
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 and 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
Ooooh oh sifts through its sift
Sifts through its sift
He was a husband, drove, time
Hope, time, car, oh, core
Core, sick day, core
coffee, core warning, last warning
Was a husband, time, pine scrub, scrub
Bathroom, lean, hair, back
Car window, hope, time, give, don't they
Build buildings tall these days
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 oh 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 a say baby that's ok
And her conscience would issue yet another last warning, saying;
Oh they build buildings oh they build buildings oh they build buildings oh 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 its sift
Just sifts through its sift
Sifts through its sift
Just sifts through its sift
When we'd eat 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 scrub the bathrooms and make 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;
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 and 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
Ooooh oh sifts through its sift
Sifts through its sift
He was a husband, drove, time
Hope, time, car, oh, core
Core, sick day, core
coffee, core warning, last warning
Was a husband, time, pine scrub, scrub
Bathroom, lean, hair, back
Car window, hope, time, give, don't they
Build buildings tall these days
