Just one drop will bring the whole house down
God only knows, you can’t stop the sound
Of the outside coming inside
Can’t un-hear it once it’s said out loud
And you shoulda known better
You shoulda known better
You shoulda known better
You shoulda known better by now
After the fires went out
That’s when the rain came
Whatever we’re gonna be now, love
We gotta build it in the clearing
Just one spark’ll take the whole town out
God only knows, you can’t stop us now
Can’t un-say it once you’ve drawn the crowd
And we shoulda known better
We shoulda known better
We shoulda known better
We shoulda known better by now
After the fires went out
That’s when the rain came
Whatever we’re gonna be now, love
We gotta build it in the clearing
And I know it’s my privilege
And I know it’s my burden
To be burned by the sleeping
And to beg for forgiveness
After the fires went out
That’s when the rain came
Whatever we’re gonna be now, love
We gotta build it in the clearing
