The Cinematic Orchestra - To Build a Home Lyrics

There is a house built out of stone
Wooden floors, walls and window sills
The tables and chairs worn by all of the dust
And this is a place where I don't feel alone
And this is a place where I feel at home

And I, oh, I built
A home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time
To leave and turn
To dust

Out in the garden where we planted the seeds
Well, there is a tree that's as old as me
Branches were sewn by the color of green
The ground had arose way passed it's knees

the cracks of the skin I climbed to the top
and I climbed the tree to see the world
the gusts came around to blow me down
and I held on as tightly as you held onto me
I held on as tightly as you held onto me

And I, oh, I built
A home
For you
For me

Until it disappeared
From me
From you

And now, it's time
To leave and turn
To dust
