Bruce Springsteen Terry`s Song Lyrics

Terry`s Song Lyrics

Well they built the Titanic to be one of a kind, but many ships have ruled the
seas

They built the Eiffel Tower to stand alone, but they could build
another if they please

Taj Mahal, the pyramids of Egypt, are unique I
suppose

But when they built you, brother, they broke the mold



Now the world is filled with many wonders under the passing sun

And
sometimes something comes along and you know it's for sure the only one

The Mona Lisa, the David, the Sistine Chapel, Jesus, Mary, and Joe

And
when they built you, brother, they broke the mold



When they built
you, brother, they turned dust into gold

When they built you, brother,
they broke the mold



They say you can't take it with you, but I
think that they're wrong

'Cause all I know is I woke up this morning, and
something big was gone

Gone into that dark ether where you're still young
and hard and cold

Just like when they built you, brother, they broke the
mold



[harmonica bridge]



Now your death is upon us and
we'll return your ashes to the earth

And I know you'll take comfort in
knowing you've been roundly blessed and cursed

But love is a power
greater than death, just like the songs and stories told

And when she
built you, brother, she broke the mold



That attitude's a power
stronger than death, alive and burning her stone cold

When they built
you, brother



[harmonica bridge]
