You and Me on the Rock by Brandi Carlile

You and Me on the Rock Lyrics

[00:10.72] They build wooden houses on frozen ponds
[00:13.72] In the summertime when the water's gone
[00:16.74] Diagonal lines in their rolled-out lawns
[00:19.39] And the sage always smells so pretty
[00:22.24] But nobody cares where the birds have gone
[00:24.98] When the rain comes down on Babylon
[00:27.94] The stone mason's phone rings all day long
[00:30.64] And you gotta get back to the city
[00:33.50] I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
[00:36.50] Every day with you
[00:38.85] There's nothin' in that town I need
[00:41.74] After everything we've been through
[00:44.71] Me out in my garden and you out on your walk
[00:49.63] Is all the distance this poor girl can take
[00:52.86] Without listenin' to you talk
[00:56.15] I don't need their money, baby
[00:58.55] Just you and me on the rock
[01:04.31] You and me on the rock
[01:10.96] I built paper planes when I learned to fly
[01:13.70] Like a 747 fallin' out of the sky
[01:16.79] I folded 'em crooked, now I'm wonderin' why
[01:19.46] I could always end up in the water
[01:22.48] But nobody's askin' why she lookin' so thin
[01:25.17] Why she laughin' too hard or why she drinkin' again
[01:28.02] A fallen star, she's a paper plane
[01:30.62] She was goin' down when you caught her
[01:33.87] I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
[01:36.66] Every day with you
[01:39.14] There's nothin' in that town I need
[01:41.76] After everything we've been through
[01:45.01] Me out in my garden and you out on your walk
[01:49.46] Is all the distance this poor girl can take
[01:52.88] Without listenin' to you talk
[01:56.16] I don't need their money, baby
[01:58.35] Just you and me on the rock
[02:05.43] It's an earthquake, it's a harder wind
[02:11.25] It's a record breakin' tide and it is rollin' in
[02:16.60] It's a big sea, but it can't touch you and me
[02:21.68] It's just not water for you
[02:25.24] And what are you?
[02:32.29] I don't need their money, baby
[02:39.23] Woo!
[02:40.07]
[02:49.98] I'll build my house up on this rock, baby
[02:53.71] Every day with you
[02:56.26] There's nothin' in that town I need
[02:59.15] After everything we've been through
[03:01.96] Me out in my garden and you out on your walk
[03:06.82] Is all the distance this old girl can take
[03:10.15] Without listenin' to you talk
[03:13.23] I don't need their money, baby
[03:15.52] Just you and me on the rock
[03:20.94] I don't need their money, baby (I don't need their money, baby)
[03:26.60] Just you and me on the rock (just you and me on the rock)
[03:32.60] You and me on the rock
[03:38.41]
