Lyrics The World We Built - The Wild Reeds

The World We Built

No one knows just what we’ve got
We built a world that we want
Stars on the ceiling, I’ve got a feeling
Your issues
Now whose secrets on seashores
Between our bodies, there’s a silent roar
If I told you I won’t fight it anymore
Will you have me just the same
You’re a desert with a heartbeat
And I’m a setting sun when it turns pink
I can wrap my arms around you
And I reach each time I pass on through
You’re as close as you are far
Desert heart
Tomorrow with your suitcase
You’ll take a piece of me when you go away
I’ll be breathing all this California air
Hoping you don’t find something better out there
I’ll be waiting there at the door
Of the world we built, the world we want
