[00:00.00]Houses Sing - Danny Schmidt
[00:21.23]There's signs in all the yards
[00:24.78]With a price tag and a plea
[00:28.20]Can't you hear them houses sing
[00:32.00]Can't you hear them houses sing
[00:37.98]And I can see my daughter swinging
[00:41.46]In the shade of every tree
[00:45.38]Can't you hear them houses sing
[00:49.04]Can't you hear them houses sing
[00:55.25]And I can move a mountain
[00:58.49]When the mountain moves in me
[01:02.34]And I can hear them houses sing
[01:06.24]I can hear them houses sing
[01:12.12]Every building tells a story every builder holds a pen
[01:19.34]Can't you hear them houses sing
[01:23.05]Can't you hear them houses sing
[01:28.86]They only tell beginnings
[01:32.40]They're yours to tell the end
[01:36.14]Can't you hear them houses sing
[01:40.45]Can't you hear them houses sing
[01:46.56]And I can move a mountain
[01:49.84]When the mountain moves in me
[01:53.70]And I can hear them houses sing
[01:57.73]I can hear them houses sing
[02:03.55]If there's limestone 'neath the pylons
[02:07.46]That's stone enough for me
[02:11.16]Can't you hear them houses sing
[02:15.08]Can't you hear them houses sing
[02:20.74]'Cause I'm cracked in all the places
[02:24.79]I expect my steps should be
[02:28.68]Can't you hear them houses sing
[02:32.66]Can't you hear them houses sing
[02:38.36]They sing like tired children
[02:41.88]They just sing the things they know
[02:46.12]Then they sink into your arms
[02:49.38]Until your dreams become their own
[02:53.16]But the only thing that stands
[02:57.05]Between the houses and the homes
[03:01.40]Is a mountain top an old steel pail
[03:05.59]And thirty years of stones
[03:11.12]So all you quarrymen and miners
[03:15.17]You family men and friends
[03:18.58]Can't you hear them houses sing
[03:22.52]I can hear them houses sing
[03:28.37]'Cause I'm here to move a mountain
[03:32.18]I'm here to make a man
[03:36.15]Can't you hear them houses sing
[03:40.08]I can hear them houses sing
[03:46.47]'Cause I can move a mountain
[03:49.48]When the mountain moves in me
[03:53.74]And say I can hear them houses sing
[03:57.72]Can't you hear them houses sing
[04:01.42]And say I can hear them houses sing
[04:05.55]Can't you hear them houses sing
