Rebecca Naomi Jones - Built for Longing lyrics

[SARA] Terrified, I am Every single day Petrified, I am And I'm not wood or clay [MICHAEL] How long, you ask? Heavy like rock and gla** Are we expected to swim While we are drowning within? [TOM] Don't ask how long We're built for longing Don't ask how long We're built for longing [NARRATOR] We can fantasize About a good man and try Try to float, not sink Through our lives [SARA] And I think: Everyone can sympathize We all want the sun and skies [MICHAEL] Maybe a baby or two A better life, I promise you [SARA & NARRATOR] Don't ask how long We're built for longing Don't ask how long Cause every answer's wrong You and me Are made for wanting [MICHAEL & TOM] We're always gonna want for something [TOM] Everyone can sympathize We want the moon and the skies Start again, our lives brand new [MICHAEL & SARA] The life I used to come home to [ALL] Don't ask how long We're built for longing Don't ask how long Cause every answer's wrong You and me Are made for wanting We're always gonna want for something We are made for the wanting We'll always want for something We are made for the wanting Built for longing
