[Verse 1]
The dust has finally settled down
The sun is shining on these pieces that are scattered all around
This house was everything we knew
It's where we kept our love and
Every single memory of me and you
Every letter, every note, every dress you ever wore under your coat
Thrown away
Brick by brick, we can build it from the floor
If we hold onto each other, we'll be better than before

[Chorus]
And brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver and
When you took my breath away
You took my breath away

[Verse 2]
The sky has made it back to blue
Everything that's left is telling us the worst of it is through
Home has never felt so right, there's nothing in the way
There's nothing in between us
Knowing where we're going is inside
Every letter that I wrote
Every dress you never wore under your coat
Thrown away
Brick by brick, we can build it from the floor
If we hold on to each other
We'll be better than before

[Chorus]
And brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver and
When you took my breath away
You took my breath away

[Verse 3]
All the pictures that we've taken
And the songs that we have played
That have all kept track and
Followed back the love that we have made
Now they're spread out on the
Surface where we can try to congregate
It's not too late to believe that we can have it all again
Brick by brick, we can build it from the floor
If we hold onto each other
We'll be better than before
And brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver and
When you took my breath away
Took my breath away

[Chorus]
Brick by brick
We'll get back to yesterday
When I made your body shiver and
When you took my breath away
You took my breath away

Train

Train is an American rock band from San Francisco, formed in 1993. The band currently consists of Patrick Monahan (lead vocals), Luis Maldonado (guitar), Hector Maldonado (bass, vocals), Drew Shoals (drums), Jerry Becker (keyboards, guitar), Sakai Smith (backup vocals), and Nikita Houston (backup vocals).

With a lineup that included original members Monahan, Rob Hotchkiss, Jimmy Stafford, Scott Underwood, and Charlie Colin, the band achieved mainstream success with their debut album Train, which was released in 1998 with the hit “Meet Virginia”. Train’s 2001 album, Drops of Jupiter contained the lead single “Drops of Jupiter (Tell Me)”, which won two Grammy Awards in 2002. The album was certified double platinum in the United States and Canada and remains the band’s best-selling album to date.

Train’s third studio album, My Private Nation, released in 2003, was certified platinum in the United States with the hit “Calling All Angels”. Following the departures of Hotchkiss and Colin, the band released their fourth album, For Me, It’s You in 2006, with Brandon Bush (keyboards) and Johnny Colt (bass). Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the album was commercially unsuccessful. Because of this, Train went on a two-year hiatus from recording any new music.
