Karaoké You and Me on the Rock Brandi Carlile & Lucius

They build wooden houses on frozen ponds

In the summertime when the water's gone

Diagonal lines in their rolled-out lawns

And the sage always smells so pretty

But nobody cares where the birds have gone when the rain comes down on Babylon

The stone mason's phone rings all day long and you gotta get back to the city

I'll build my house up on this rock baby every day with you

There's nothin' in that town

I need after everything we've been through

Me out in my garden and you out on your walk

Is all the distance this poor girl can take without listenin' to you talk

I don't need their money baby just you and me on the rock

You and me on the rock

I built paper planes when I learned to fly

Like a seven-forty-seven fallin' out of the sky

I folded 'em crooked

Now I'm wonderin' why

I could always end up in the water

But nobody's askin' why she lookin' so thin

Why she laughin' too hard or why she drinkin' again

A fallen star

She's a paper plane

She was goin' down when you caught her

I'll build my house up on this rock baby every day with you

There's nothin' in that town

I need after everything we've been through

Me out in my garden and you out on your walk

Is all the distance this poor girl can take without listenin' to you talk

I don't need their money baby just you and me on the rock

It's an earthquake

It's a harder wind

It's a record breakin' tide and it is rollin' in

It's a big sea but it can't touch you and me

It's just a water view

And what a view

I don't need their money baby

Wooh

I'll build my house up on this rock baby every day with you

There's nothin' in that town

I need after everything we've been through

Me out in my garden and you out on your walk

Is all the distance this old girl can take without listenin' to you talk

I don't need their money baby just you and me on the rock

I don't need their money baby just you and me on the rock

You and me on the rock
