Brick By Brick

(Ooh)

It's harder when the weather never changes
Staying worse than what would once have been your worst of days
The house that always kept you warm is just a frame
Unable to adapt

Soon enough you have to wonder will it change back
Building up the house and knowing it’s a waste because
When you finally put the pieces back together
The wind just tears them off

You're certain flood's eternal then

A little bit of warmth floats towards you
A little bit of sunshine breaks through
And the wind decides it will forgive and
So now brick by brick
Worth saving, no to maybe oh
Houses coming back together
You can’t always change the weather
But you can change what you do and
Find something brand new

It isn't much but it's a step that I can promise
I'll put a stake into the ground and build a fortress here
Digging heals and holding hands until the line is
Broken into bits

Up until then I'll be standing at the doorway
Shut the shutters and I'll try to keep the storm away
And when wind comes I'll have a couple things to count on
Friends who hold me up

It's changing
Lights are fading when

A little bit of warmth floods towards you
A little bit of sunshine breaks through
And the wind decides it will forgive and
So now brick by brick
Worth saving, no to maybe oh
Houses is coming back together
You can’t always change the weather
You can change what you do and
Find something brand new

You’ll be perfect
When the storm hits
Watch it from behind a window
Knowing that although the wind blows, you can mend what it breaks
Even if it's you
