(Henry Paul/Van Stephenson/Dave Robbins)

Stone by stone, beam by beam
Hand in hand, we built this dream
Now you're wreckin' this home
Doin' it stone by stone

Brick by brick, tear by tear
The love we made has slowly disappeared
It's as good as gone
You're takin' it stone by stone

Why can't you up and just walk away
Do you have to drag it out day after day
I'm tired of tryin', I'm giving up
'Cause you tear it down faster than I can fix it up

Room by room, wall by wall
Pretty soon it's gonna fall
On your own
You're doin' it stone by stone

Why can't you up and just walk away
Do you have to drag it out day after day
I'm tired of tryin', I'm giving up
'Cause you tear it down faster than I can fix it up

Stone by stone, beam by beam
Hand in hand, we built this dream
Now you're wreckin' this home
Doing it stone by stone

Stone by stone by stone by stone
Stone by stone by stone by stone
On your own, you're doin' it stone by stone
