Wild Apples - Our Own Room Lyrics

There's a house on a hill
Our parents built for us
A sanctuary, we each had our own room
In that house where we grew up

Could someone else
Be living there now?

There's a town, the town where we grew up
We left all our friends there
At the church, at school, downtown, and at the park
We thought that we knew who we were

But we'll never go back to that old town
It's not there anymore
We'll never walk those streets again
We burnt that city down

There's no way to get back home
But we can start anew
Build a fire; sketch the blueprints
It's our turn to build

So let's build! Let's build it up
Let's claim our plot of land
Brick by brick, wall by wall, street by street
Our own house, our own town, our own room

Yeah, let's build! We'll built this town!
Let's lay that cornerstone
We can work and sweat we'll pour out our souls
For this place, our new town, our new home
