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 When your questions go unanswered And the silence is killing you Take my hand baby I'm your man I got love maybe enough for two Ten story love song I built this thing for you Who can take you higher Than twin deep mountain blue Oh well I've built this thing for you And I love you true There's no sure-fire set solutions No short-cut through the trees No breach in no wall that They put there to keep you from me 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 Ten story love song I built this thing for you Who can take you higher Than twin deep mountain blue Oh well I've built this thing for you And I love you true Ten story love song I built this thing for you Who can take you higher Than twin deep mountain blue Oh well I've built this thing for you And I love you true
