A slow tempo reflection about building our lives on the foundation of deep, deep love.

Story behind the song
I wanted to write something at a slow tempo that was more reflective than some of my stuff. And I had things on my mind! This is how it came out!
Lyrics
Build our House (Deep Foundations)
Adrian J Pratt 1/18/2023
Some days we want to give up,
And feel like we are through.
Frustrated at a lack of progress,
When we're doing all we can do
There's choices to make,
There's hard things to say,
And none of it will be easy,
But I guess we always knew,
It could end this way.
Oh, it's a burning temptation,
To throw in that proverbial towel,
Hey, yeh Just cut your losses,
And move away to another town.
There's choices to make,
There's hard things to say
And none of it will be easy,
But I guess we always knew,
It could end this way.
Day by day, Stone by stone
We will build our house,
With deep, deep foundations
Winds will blow, Storms will rage,
But we will build our house,
With deep, deep, deep foundations
So, don't be afraid.
Be confident in the choices you have made.
Look back over your journey,
Something's always carried you through ,
Do you think that will change,
Just because you’re facing something new?
There were choices to make,
And always hard things to say,
And none of it was ever easy.
But I think we always knew
It would be that way.
Day by day, Stone by stone
We will build our house,
With deep, deep foundations
Winds will blow, Storms will rage,
But we will build our house,
With deep, deep, deep foundations.
