Lego House ft. P Money
Ed Sheeran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And build a Lego house
When things go wrong we can knock it down
My three words have two meanings
There's one thing on my mind, it's all for you
And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
And keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm gonna paint you by numbers and color you in
If things go right we can frame it, and put you on a wall
And it's so hard to say it but I've been here before
And I'll surrender up my heart and swap it for yours
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind, I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
Don't hold me down
I think my braces are breaking and it's more than I can take
And if it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
And if you're broken I'll mend ya
And keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind
I'll do it all for you in time
And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love
I'll pick you up when you're getting down
And out of all these things I've done, I'll love you better now
The song Lego House by Ed Sheeran, featuring P Money, is a heartfelt love song that tells the story of a person who promises to pick up the pieces and build a strong foundation in a relationship. The song begins with the lyrics, "I'm gonna pick up the pieces and build a Lego house, when things go wrong we can knock it down." This expresses the idea that the person is willing to work on the relationship, and that they will be there for their partner through tough times. The use of Lego as an analogy for the relationship highlights the idea that the person is willing to build something strong and durable, even if it takes time and effort.
The chorus of the song, "I'm out of touch, I'm out of love, I'll pick you up when you're getting down, and out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now" reveals the singer's self-awareness of how he has grown and matured since his past relationships, and that he now knows how to love better. He is willing to invest his time and affection in this new relationship and provide shelter from any external turmoil. The line, "Don't hold me down, I think my braces are breaking and it's more than I can take" shows the singer's vulnerability, which further highlights the depth of his emotions.
Overall, the song is about finding genuine love and holding onto it, even if it means going through challenging times. It inspires hope in the listener that true love is possible, and that it requires effort, commitment, and understanding.

I'm gonna pick up the pieces
I will make things right
And build a Lego house
I will create something solid and strong
When things go wrong we can knock it down
It's okay to rebuild and start fresh when things don't work out

What I say may have a deeper or double meaning
There's one thing on my mind, it's all for you
I'm focused and committed to you
And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
Even in difficult times, I have you to comfort me
And if you're broken I'll mend ya
I will help heal your wounds
And keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on now
I will protect you from the chaos around us
I'm out of touch, I'm out of love

I am willing to put in the effort and time to make things work
I'm gonna paint you by numbers and color you in
I will create a beautiful picture of our life together
If things go right we can frame it, and put you on a wall
Our relationship can be something to cherish and display proudly
And it's so hard to say it but I've been here before
I may have experienced pain and heartbreak in the past
And I'll surrender up my heart and swap it for yours
I am willing to risk my heart for you and we can share a deep connection
Don't hold me down
Don't limit our potential or hold me back from growth
I think my braces are breaking and it's more than I can take
I feel overwhelmed and need support during a difficult time
And out of all these things I've done, I'll love you better now
Despite my past mistakes, I will love you more fully and selflessly

I remember when I listened to this song like 3 years ago, times were really tough for me and this song hit me right in the heart... Listening to this amazing song gives me so much feels.
@Opop901LP
guys if you stop arguing about who sings what and whether you prefer the original, listen to the lyrics and the story told by P money and how ed's chorus fits into it. It truly is beautiful
