Song | Houses Sing |
Artist | Danny Schmidt |
Album | Man of Many Moons |
[00:21.390] | There’s signs in all the yards with a price tag and a plea |
[00:28.450] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[00:32.130] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[00:38.120] | And I can see my daughter swinging in the shade of every tree |
[00:45.380] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[00:49.110] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[00:55.460] | And I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me |
[01:02.560] | And I can hear them houses sing, I can hear them houses sing |
[01:12.090] | Every building tells a story, every builder holds a pen |
[01:19.360] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[01:23.200] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[01:29.220] | They only tell beginnings, they’re yours to tell the end |
[01:36.500] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[01:40.410] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[01:46.760] | And I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me |
[01:53.980] | And I can hear them houses sing, I can hear them houses sing |
[02:03.690] | If there’s limestone ‘neath the pylons, that’s stone enough for me |
[02:11.220] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[02:15.080] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[02:20.870] | Cause I’m cracked in all the places I expect my steps should be |
[02:28.730] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[02:32.590] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[02:38.580] | They sing like tired children, they just sing the things they know |
[02:46.080] | Then they sink into your arms until your dreams become their own |
[02:53.540] | But the only thing that stands between the houses and the homes |
[03:01.490] | Is a mountain top, an old steel pail, and thirty years of stones |
[03:11.360] | So all you quarrymen and miners, you family men and friends |
[03:18.690] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[03:22.620] | I can hear them houses sing |
[03:28.530] | I’m here to move a mountain, I’m here to make a man |
[03:36.250] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[03:40.140] | I can hear them houses sing |
[03:46.580] | Cause I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me |
[03:53.840] | And I can hear them houses sing |
[03:57.750] | Can’t you hear them houses sing? |
[00:21.390] | There' s signs in all the yards with a price tag and a plea |
