Holding on to what we have
Can't let it slip away
I can never say the words
I've always wanted to say

Everything we have is like an empire
That we've built upon the sand, oh, baby
Everything we have is like an empire
That we've built upon the sand

Holding on to what we have
Can't let it get away
I've been trying to get some sleep
But nothing ever seems to change

Everything we have is like an empire
That wе've built upon the sand
Everything wе have is like an empire
That we've built upon the sand
Everything we have is like an empire
That we've built upon the sand
Everything we have is like an empire
That we've built upon the sand

I don't want to live without you, baby
They will never, never know
Baby
I can't live without you
