lyrics

We used to write letter upon letter
Stacking up the alphabet
Constructed our own woodblock tower
Slowly removed each piece
I don't know much about construction
But I swear it won't take the wind
And if we don't build support beams for that dream
It'll huff and puff our house away

I knew you better
You knew me better
I knew me better
Let's renew us better

I think of you from time to time
Wonder what you're building now
Can't seem to find the words to write
It seems that I have used them up
Wasted them on ex-girlfriends and half-friends
Tore them up - they blew away
I can only hope that they'll land and make plants
Somewhere near where you are now

I knew you better
You knew me better
I knew me better
Let's renew us better
