Prefab Sprout - Andromeda Heights lyrics

We're building a home on the side of a mountain Above the clouds, next to the sky And after our labours the stars will be neighbours We'll take our place with them in space We're not using concrete or plaster or wood - They'd lower the tone of our new neighbourhood And mortar will crumble with age and neglect We're building our home upon love and respect And when we've built it we'll call it andromeda heights When we've built it we'll call it andromeda heights When we've built it we'll call it andromeda heights We're building a home on the side of a mountain Above the clouds, next to the sky Our plans are ambitious - a blueprint of wishes That will come true and when they do... Folks in the valley will look up and say "You've finally built it can we come and stay?" And cynics will marvel and say "We confess - There were times when we thought it was just an address! But now that we've seen it we know it's andromeda heights Now we've seen it we know it's andromeda heights Now we've seen it we know it's andromeda heights." We're building a home on the side of a mountain Above the clouds, next to the sky And after our labours the stars will be neighbours We'll take our place with them in space
