Built to Last
Grateful Dead
There are times when you can beckon
There are times when you must call
You can take a lot of reckoning
But you can't take it all
There are times when I can help you out
And times when you must fall
There are times when you must live in doubt
And I can't help at all
Three blue stars rise on the hill
Say no more, now just be still
All these trials soon be past
[Incomprehensible] something built to last
A wind held by the collar
Yes, a cloud held by the breeze
You can walk on coals of fire
But sometimes you must freeze
There are times when you offend me
And I do the same to you
If we can't or won't [Incomprehensible]
I guess we could be through
Two blue star sets on the hill
Call it back, you never will
One more star sinks in the past
Show me something built to last
Built to last till time itself falls tumbling from the wall
Built to last till sunlight fails and darkness moves on all
Built to last while years roll past like cloudscapes in the sky
Show me something built to last and something built to try
Times when you get hit upon
Try hard but you cannot give
Other times you'd gladly part
With what you need to live
Don't waste your breath to save your face
When you have done your best
And even more is asked of you
Fate will decide the rest
All the stars are gone but one
Morning breaks, here comes the sun
[Incomprehensible] the sky now sinking fast
Show me something built to last
Three blue stars rise on the hill
[Incomprehensible] just be still
All these trials soon be past
Look for something built to last
One blue star sets on the hill
Call it back, you never will
[Incomprehensible] more star that sinks in the past
Show me something built to last
All the stars are gone but one
Morning breaks, here comes the sun
Cross the sky now sinking fast
Show me something built to last
