Lyric

Knocking on the morning air

Waking up the day, right there

In the scent of fresh cut wood

A brand new morning starts for good

With your straight and steady hands

No hesitation in your plans

On a drawing, small and neat

Layering dreams until complete

You see, every single wall

Every roof, both big and small

Grows so warm beneath your care

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Building up our happiness

Filling lives with smiles and bliss

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

One by one, day after day

Connecting hearts along the way

Even on a passing cloudy day

Even when the rain won't go away

Just a single sound of driving nails

Makes us look ahead where hope prevails

Fitting perfectly into the space

Between the timber, in its place

A little feeling of "Thank you so"

Slowly makes a home and starts to grow

You see, every sturdy beam

Every window like a dreamIs only there because you care

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Building up our happiness

Filling lives with smiles and bliss

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

One by one, day after day

Connecting hearts along the way

Even the tears from yesterday

These hands have held them all away

For a heart that's about to bend and break

A pillar of light you proudly make

Standing strong so it won't fall

No need to rush through it all

For someone’s tomorrow, you stand so bright

Keeping them safe through the night

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Building up our happiness

Filling lives with smiles and bliss

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

One by one, day after day

Connecting hearts along the way

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Tap, tap, tap, tap, Mr. Carpenter

Leading into tomorrow's dome

Building up a warm, sweet home
