Lyrics

Start with a dream and then keep it alive
Take a deep breath and then open your eyes
Everything you can see right here is yours for the taking
It's hard to believe that you'll ever arrive
Starting with nothing, just what is inside
Honestly, these are the moments that take the most patience
When it comes you will see
What's shining underneath
You know this is how dreams are made
Going up, up, we'll fly away
'Cause right now, we can be anywhere
So why don't we stay awhile?
'Cause this time, I'll be soon paradise
As long as we like, but just for tonight
We're building, we're building, we're building an empire
We're building an empire
We're building an empire
Never too old and we're never too young
Take the first step and then you have begun
Climbing, reaching, deciding for some higher level
Here it comes, don't you see
What's shapin' underneath?
See the sun rising high above
You know these are the days we love
'Cause right now, we can be anywhere
So why don't we stay awhile?
'Cause this time, I'll be soon paradise
As long as we like, but just for tonight
We're building, we're building, we're building an empire
We're building an empire
We're building an empire
