A House Built on Sand

No matter where I am, you're there

Right where I wish I was

No one holds a candle. I swear

Every time I think of you, it's only love

 

No matter where you are, I'm here

Right where I don't want to be

I can't think of you without tears

I just wish you were with me.

 

But a house built on sand will never last.

It'll crumble and fall every time

We can't live always in the past

It's time to get on with my life

Here I am in this house built on sand

I'll keep building for all of time.

 

No matter where we are, I'll still love you.

You know I always have.

There's nothing else in my heart for you.

Timing's never been what we're good at.

 

But a house built on sand will never last.

It'll crumble and fall every time

We can't live always in the past

It's time to get on with my life

Here I am in this house built on sand

I'll keep building for all of time.

 

I'm so tired of losing you, that I can't see straight

But it seems I always will.

There's nothing of me left to give away.

I hate myself for losing you, but still...

 

A house built on sand will never last.

It'll crumble and fall every time

We can't live always in the past

It's time to get on with my life

Here I am in this house built on sand

I'll keep building for all of time.
