[Intro] [piano, sparse] [Verse 1] Your coffee mug still sits beside the sink Your jacket hangs where you would leave it The hush that fills where you should breathe Is louder than I could believe [Pre-Chorus] But love ain't something that just quits When the heart it lives in stalls So I carry what you carried Before the whole thing falls [Chorus] I'm still building Laying every stone for you Still building Doing what you taught me to Hands in concrete, heart won't quit it Love don't stop when someone goes I'm still building Every seed you planted grows [Verse 2] Some days the scaffolding gets shaky Some nights I nearly set it down But then I feel you in the framework In every nail I hammer down [Pre-Chorus] You showed me love was in the labor Not the promises we speak So I put my hands to working Building what you'll never see [Chorus] I'm still building Laying every stone for you Still building Doing what you taught me to Hands in concrete, heart won't quit it Love don't stop when someone goes I'm still building Every seed you planted grows [Bridge] [stripped, piano only] Yeah, I still ache when the morning breaks Yeah, I still reach for what ain't there But grief becomes a kind of kindling When you burn it into prayer [Final Chorus] [full band, gospel swells] Still building! [call and response: Still building!] Laying every stone for you Still building! [call and response: Still building!] What we dreamed is breaking through Hands in concrete, heart won't quit it Love don't stop—it overflows I'm still building [stacked harmonies, big finish] What you started I'll see it through I'm still building! [tag] Still building! [Outro] [fading, just piano] Still building...
