Lyrics
Build Me a City © Jason Lloyd-Bevis
Gonna Build Me a City, Gonna Build Me a Wall
Gonna Build Me a City, At least a thousand feet tall
Cause deep inside and there is no light (x2)
Do you ever feel Pity, Do you ever feel Poor
Do you ever feel Haunted, And want to even the Score
Cause Deep inside an there is no light (x2)
Yeahhh....
Well my soul keeps on searching, but I don't know what for
Feels forever searching, Crawls along on the floor
Deep inside and there is no light (x2)
Now my baby has left me, flown across the sea
I won't see her tomorrow, and what will be will be
Cause deep inside and I can see no light (x2)
They keep on knocking us down
Gonna build me a ladder, climb on out of this place
Climb on up the ladder, and feel the sun on my face
Maybe baby I can see the light (x2)
Knock down the City
Knock down the Wall
Climb up the rubble
I'm gonna stand real tall ....
And yeah now baby I can see the light
I said yeah baby I can see the light
Yeahhh....
