Houses Sing歌詞

Houses Sing - Danny Schmidt
There's signs in all the yards
With a price tag and a plea
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
And I can see my daughter swinging
In the shade of every tree
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
And I can move a mountain
When the mountain moves in me
And I can hear them houses sing
I can hear them houses sing
Every building tells a story every builder holds a pen
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
They only tell beginnings
They're yours to tell the end
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
And I can move a mountain
When the mountain moves in me
And I can hear them houses sing
I can hear them houses sing
If there's limestone 'neath the pylons
That's stone enough for me
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
'Cause I'm cracked in all the places
I expect my steps should be
Can't you hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
They sing like tired children
They just sing the things they know
Then they sink into your arms
Until your dreams become their own
But the only thing that stands
Between the houses and the homes
Is a mountain top an old steel pail
And thirty years of stones
So all you quarrymen and miners
You family men and friends
Can't you hear them houses sing
I can hear them houses sing
'Cause I'm here to move a mountain
I'm here to make a man
Can't you hear them houses sing
I can hear them houses sing
'Cause I can move a mountain
When the mountain moves in me
And say I can hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
And say I can hear them houses sing
Can't you hear them houses sing
