Before Dawn Crew

Songtekst

[Verse 1] When the world is still And the porches sleep You’re in the cab of the truck With the sky going deep Boots on the gravel Coffee in hand You roll up your sleeves Like a well-made plan [Pre-Chorus] You know the beam from the level You know the bend in the wire You turn a bare frame Into a place with a fire [Chorus] Before dawn crew, before dawn crew You make it hold, you make it true Before dawn crew, before dawn crew Homes rise up in the morning dew (oh-oh, before dawn crew) [Verse 2] You hang the dry wall You run every line You fit the pipes tight So the water comes fine You set the doors square You seal every seam You turn empty rooms Into somebody’s dream [Pre-Chorus] You know the hum in the breaker You know the snap of the trim You bring a house to life From the studs to the rim [Chorus] Before dawn crew, before dawn crew You make it hold, you make it true Before dawn crew, before dawn crew Homes rise up in the morning dew (oh-oh, before dawn crew) [Bridge] And maybe no one sees it When the moon is still high But the kids wake up safe Under a steady sky One day, two years later They’ll point and smile Say this home got built By somebody with style [Final Chorus] Before dawn crew, before dawn crew You make it hold, you make it true Before dawn crew, before dawn crew Homes rise up in the morning dew Before dawn crew, before dawn crew You built the place we all come through (oh-oh, before dawn crew)
