Terry's song

Lyrics By Bruce Springsteen

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

 

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
