Song Writing & Lyrics

song to write in english...

Hello,

I would like to write a song, but I am not so strong in english.
Is it possible for you to help me ?
Do you think that it is corrects sentences :
"I'd build us a place where no one would reach us" or
"I'd build us a place where no one would have reached us" or
"I'd build us a place where no one could reach us" ?

Thanks in advance Emotion: smile

#1: "would reach us" is okay, expresses the possibility of an unreal situation or speaker's expectation/uncertainty, maybe your intention is one of them
#2: not good as "building a place" hasn't happened yet, using perfect tense here is not really suitable, I think
#3: okay => theoretical possibility
