Our lives built on tin cans and string

But the cornerstone laid

Is a wondrous and beautiful thing

Sure in the ground

While the north wind has taken its toll

You have helped me to find my way back

And to anchor my soul

Safe in the sound



Oh, you know me

Oh, and I know you

And I know that

We can see this through



I bragged of baring my bones

Said if we heard the howling

I'd run out to face it alone

To meet it halfway

But I've still got badges to earn

So keep sifting my soul

'Cause I think that I'm starting to learn

To love you that way



Oh, you know me

Oh, and I know you

And I know that

We can see this through



And it's true that you could snap my neck

But I trust you'll save my life instead



'Cause our love is a loyalty sworn

If we hold to our hope

Then I know we can weather the storm

Whatever they say



Oh, you know me

Oh, and I know you

And I know that

We can see this through
