"When I Build My Beautiful House" lyrics - BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN
"When I Build My Beautiful House"

When I build my beautiful house
I'll build it high, high above this road
This road I walk in shadow and doubt
There I'll build my beautiful house

When I build my beautiful house
I'll build it high on that rocky hill
Where pain and memory have been stilled
There I'll build my beautiful house

[Bridge:]
Down here below, baby, nothing lasts
Love and great stone mansions turn to dust and ash
Past all this, I walk along
Somethin' stronger than my own children movin' me on

[Violin Solo]

I walk with a hammer and a fiery lantern
With this I build, and with this I burn
These things I carry on my dark road
And so it goes, and so it goes

When I build my beautiful house
I'll build it high on that rocky hill
Where pain and memory have been stilled
There I'll build my beautiful house
