Build our love and we'll
See your light
I know it's coming and I'm terrified
No more defenses here to hide behind
Oh, just you and I
Through the snow
I see it burning like a ray of hope
I found the fire, now the ashes glow
Oh, come alive
They know that I'm awake
I'm not afraid of letting go tonight
Cause we found strength in each other's arms
We build this love and we made it our
Empire, empire, empire
And you and I can rule each other's hearts
We'll build our love and we'll make it our
Empire, empire, empire
Stone by stone
We build tower we can call our own
So high that we'll forget the world below
Oh, just you and I, I
So let the drums roll
The pins blow
We're letting go tonight
Cause we found strength in each other's arms
We build this love and we made it our
Empire, empire, empire
And you and I can rule each other's hearts
We'll build our love and we'll make it our
Empire, empire, empire
They'll never take it down
Take it down
Burn it down
Burn us down
Take it down
Take down our empire
They'll never take it down
Take it down
Burn it down
Burn us down
Take it down
Take down our empire
Cause we found strength in each other's arms
We built this love and we made it our
Empire, empire, empire
And you and I can rule each other's hearts
We'll build our love and we'll make it our
Empire, empire, empire
They'll never take it down
Take it down
Burn it down
Burn us down
Take it down
Take down our empire
