[bodytext] => ---------__________----------- There was a house that love built It sat upon the holy ground atop a cliff just by the sea It was made of the strongest stone with promised etched into each brick It's roof weather through the mighty storm and kept us both safe inside But one day, the wind was blowing strong and the stone we laid began to break We tried to fill the cracks with all our tears until we had none left to cry and as the roof came crashing down we quietly said our good byes. Yes, there was a house that love built but now it's washed into the sea our bricks with promises all broken are scattered along the beach We thought it would stand the test of time Instead, we learned how short forever can be But on that spot in the holy ground I planted a single seed and when the sun came shining through it grew into a sturdy tree Never again can a storm crush my heart for I have grown too strong. Because when love finds me again I won't let it be torn apart.
