[00:05.35] You used to know so well those weathered hands
[00:11.25] When they were gentle, when the brought the colour to your cheeks
[00:15.67] They still do, but not the same, because they turned their back on you
[00:22.75] And when she's hiding at your feet, you know you'll stay
[00:26.93] These sentiments are second hand
[00:32.36] He's fighting for his heart but he is losing ground
[00:36.29] She's unintended, not unloved
[00:42.49] And you're the one to keep her safe and sound
[00:46.23] Don't look down, even though they're looking down on you
[00:51.31] The house you build on solid ground will be a home
[00:55.05] In time, you'll see it
[00:56.36] Don't look down, even though they're looking down on you
[01:01.51] The love you build your house around will make it home in time to see them through
[01:11.60] Her shoes are scuffed, she drags her feet too much
[01:16.67] But baby lift your face, you don't need to justify your place
[01:21.75] So stay just what you are, you've come this far
[01:27.55] If only I could show your future you would light up like the sun
[01:33.06] These sentiments are second hand
[01:38.41] She's fighting for your future and she's gaining ground
[01:43.35] You are protected, you are loved
[01:48.70] So show them who you are, make them proud
[01:52.70] Don't look down, even though they're looking down on you
[01:57.57] The house you build on solid ground will be a home
[02:00.93] In time, you'll see it
[02:02.86] Don't look down, because there's no-one looking down on you
[02:07.89] Your house is built on solid ground, you'll be just fine
[02:11.67] In time, just see it through
[02:16.26] Hey little light, aren't you a big achiever?
[02:21.04] Hey Mrs.Might, I know that you believe in her
[02:26.31] Hey Mr.Beaten Down, you found your heart again
[02:30.65] In the hope you built your house around
[02:33.38] You gave your little light a brand new start
[02:43.65] Don't look down, because there's no-one looking down on you
[02:48.59] The house you built on solid ground will be a home
[02:52.14] In time, you'll see it
[02:53.69] Don't look down, because there's no-one looking down on you
[02:58.71] Your house is built on solid ground, you'll be just fine
[03:02.38] In time, just see it through
