Lyrics

A wooden tower
eighteen stories to start off
You'd think it would be high enough
but we're never satisfied
always one more piece to try

A wish upon a star
a star upon a tree
gazing upon you
you upon me
i've never been on top
or won any prize
i don't believe in war
but i'm always down for
One more game of Jenga
set it up
Build the tower
weak and high
pull a piece out
from way down
take a deep breath
heave a sigh

Pile it on
all night long
Pile it on
all night long

Steady now
It's your try
one false move
and all the pieces fly

A wish upon a star
a star upon a tree
a once upon a time
a banjo on my knee
a new love is born
deaf, dumb, and blind
a heaven to explore
guess i've got time for

One more game of Jenga
set it up
Build the tower
weak and high
another story
could bring it down
but take a deep breath
heave a sigh

Pile it on
all night long
Pile it on
all night long...

A wooden tower
eighteen stories to start off
You'd think it would be high enough
but we're never satisfied
always one more tear to cry
