From a distance I can see, the picture looks so clear to me --
It's a vantage point so few can hope to find,
And patience held the key, our love our only guarantee,
Our destiny to make it through the night
Through the tears and through the pain,
This house was built to stand the strain,
Through harder times I surely can't recall,
And crazy as it seems, through all we had were crazy dreams,
Those hungry years I'll miss the most of all --

*Now at last, we fall together,
We've been through it all together --
Ooh, I never stopped lovin' you
When the money was short
And dreams were shattered
Faith in love was all
That pulled us through
I never stopped lovin' you*

I've stumbled on the way, so many nights love went astray --
At different times we each played separate fools,
But love became our pride, when once we'd seen the other side --
Every highway led me back to you
Through the wind and through the rain,
This house was built to stand the strain
Though harder times I surely can't recall

( * Repeat)

From a distance I can see, The picture looks so clear to me,
A vantage point that only love can find
