V1

Numbers tell your life story

Lots of pain and a little glory

We're born under the stars

Helps figure out who we are

Wish on a falling star

Hopin' to heal love's scars



When you feel singled out

Too young to know what's it's about

All you hear is you're no good

A long list full of shoulds

Locked away so no one knows

Deep hurts you never outgrow



Pre-Chorus

There's only one thing to do

(remember, remember)



Chorus

Tell you children that they're loved

Your special gift from above

Let them know they'll shine

And their stars will align

Build a home on solid ground

So they're strong when you're not around

Give them solid ground

Love is Solid Ground



V2

You can't change the past

Harsh words seem to last

Pain and sadness will endure

A long road with no detours

Take the less traveled path

Teach them to find their way back



Help them feel wise for their years

And when they cry, wipe their tears

May they always feel safe and secure

So they'll know love that is pure

Leave your door open when they leave

Give them trust and they'll believe



Pre-Chorus

There's only one thing to do

(remember, remember)



Chorus

Tell you children that they're loved

Your special gift from above

Let them know they'll shine

And their stars will align

Build a home on solid ground

So they're strong when you're not around

Give them solid ground

Love is Solid Ground



Outro

Build a home on solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground
