Hello, this is me to you
It's better now we're coming through
And i don't really know just who we are
I'll stay here till my loves full up
So stir this cocktail,shake me up
Drink me down and take me from the bar.
We'll build a foundation,
Build a foundation
Build a foundation,
You know we're gonna build, build it up.
Spent the night in tumbledown
A hundred miles from west of town
Plans were laid , no compromise was made.
Gently up to meet the blue
Left a note and signed it "true"
Those construction games were all we played.
Oh i know you're gonna give your best
So more or less,gotta put it to the test
Don't you know you've got the whole world in your hands.
Surrender up and lay down your arms
The fighting hurts but the loving calms
Oh i know you've got the whole world in your hand.
We'll build a foundation,
Build a foundation
Build a foundation,
You know we're gonna build, build it up.
