We Built a House
We Built a House…
We built a house With color and design We built a house But only in our minds
In a cluttered space Where thorn and thistle lay In a cluttered space We dreamt it all away
With our soft hands In the melting of the day With our soft hands We folded them to pray
Our feeble feet Long lost their worth Our feeble feet Too numb to do the work
We felt the pain Reality is slow and labor is hard We felt the pain And settled for a mirage
We built a house With color and design We built a house But only in our minds
