It's like the world is waiting

For a sign from our hearts

A signal to start

I feel my chains are breaking

Emotional barriers

That have kept us apart

All of our lives wasted

On blind ambition

We need the time to try

We've got the right key

Turned in the wrong direction

The right dream

Waking up too fast

It's a long road

Full of good intentions

And, Girl, if we take it

I know we can make it last

Why don't we

Talk it over

There on our battlefield

Surrender together

Yeah

And while the world is watching

We'll send out a message that will

Last forever

All of our lives wanting

The right conditions

We need the time to try

We've got the right key

Turned in the wrong direction

The right dream

Waking up too fast

It's a long road

Full of good intentions

And, Girl, if we take it

I know we can make it last

We can make it

Girl, we can make it last

We can make it last, baby

Girl, if we take it

I know we can make it last
