Houses Sing
Danny Schmidt

There’s signs in all the yards with a price tag and a plea*

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

And I can see my daughter swinging in the shade of every tree

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

And I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me

And I can hear them houses sing, I can hear them houses sing

Every building tells a story, every builder holds a pen

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

They only tell beginnings, they’re yours to tell the end

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

And I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me

And I can hear them houses sing, I can hear them houses sing

If there’s limestone ‘neath the pylons, that’s stone enough for me

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

Cause I’m cracked in all the places I expect my steps should be

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

They sing like tired children, they just sing the things they know

Then they sink into your arms until your dreams become their own

But the only thing that stands between the houses and the homes

Is a mountain top, an old steel pail, and thirty years of stones

So all you quarrymen and miners, you family men and friends

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

I’m here to move a mountain, I’m here to make a man

Can’t you hear them houses sing? (2x)

Cause I can move a mountain when the mountain moves in me

And I can hear them houses sing

Can’t you hear them houses sing?
