Empire

Say so long to the end of the empire, built terra firma to sky
Brick by brick, destroyed by fire, as the dark clouds roll on by
All that remains is the brick and the ghost, it's been pulled down from pillar to post
There's nothing left, but ruins on which I stand
Ruins on which I stand

One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours

Just cause Rome wasn't built in a day, it doesn't mean you shouldn't bother trying to repave
All the cracks that make their way, to our foundations where they stay
Cause all that does remain is the brick and the ghost of yesterday
Best believe me when I say, revolution's on the way

One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours

I'll give your love all my attention, from now till the day I die
Free from fear and apprehension, I'll never ask you why
As the lamplight shades and darkness fades, I'll take you by the hand
And we'll hug the shore forever more, in our castle made of sand

Stay so long to the end of the empire, build terra firma to sky
Brick by brick, destroyed by fire, as the dark clouds roll on by
All that remains is the brick and the ghost, it's been pulled down from pillar to post
There's nothing left, but ruins on which I stand
Ruins on which I stand

One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours

One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours
One more night, I'm yours

One more night, I'm yours
