Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When your heart is black and broken
And you need a helping hand
When you're so much in love
You don't know just how much you can stand
[Verse 2]
When your questions go unanswered
And the silence is killing you
Take my hand, baby, I'm your man
I got loving enough for two
[Verse 3]
Ten-storey love song
I built this thing for you
Who can take you higher than twin peak mountain blue?
Oh well, I built this thing for you
And I love you true
[Verse 4]
There's no sure-fire set solutions
No shortcut through the trees
No breaching the wall that they put there
To keep you from me
[Verse 5]
As you're lying awake in this darkness
This everlasting night
Some day soon, don't know where or when
You're gonna wake up and see the light
[Verse 6]
Ten-storey love song
I built this thing for you
Who can take you higher than twin peak mountain blue?
Oh well, I built this thing for you
And I love you true
[Verse 7]
Ten-storey love song
I built this thing for you
Who can take you higher than twin peak mountain blue?
Oh well, I built this thing for you
And I love you true
