Like it's our last dance I'll fall in love You're the only thing I know And I don't wanna let this go Close to you are I feel, feel like I'm at home Can't wait 'til we're alone We were built to last We were built like that Baby take my hand

This house was built to stand the strain Now at last, we fall together We've been through it all together Ooh, I never stopped lovin' you When the money was short And dreams were shattered Faith in love was all That pulled us through I never stopped

This defeat is a victory We're burning out, we're fading away We're waiting for the world to save itself 'Cause nothing is built to last We're writing our epitaph So reset and start again 'Cause we all know how this ends Before long we'll be dead and
