Lyrics
People all over build on solid ground
They build it up and then they tear it down
Take it or leave it who cares how much it costs
They'll never know how much is gone until it's lost
'Til it's vanishing
Vanishing
Think I hear thunder ain't no sign of rain
Danger signs flashin' in my brain
Ridin' on empty - lights are turnin' red
There ain't no lovin' left in this empty bed
Ya it's vanishing
Vanishing
We're sittin' on treasure call it sacred ground
Why look for more babe when it's right here to be found
Never gonna lose ya - ya know I'm gonna fight
This thing's worth saving girl - ya know we'll make it right
If it takes all night - gonna swim your sea
Gonna sail your ocean - gonna shake your tree
Gonna climb your mountain - wanna shine your light
Wanna row your river darlin' - if it takes all night
People all over build mansions in the sky
They choke on smoke and watch their dreams go by
When the phone stops ringin' love has surely died
But the grass is greener babe on the other side
Never wanna lose ya - ya know I'm gonna fight
Never said it'd be easy girl - ya know we'll make it right
If it takes all night - gonna swim your sea
Gonna sail your ocean - gonna shake your tree
Gonna climb your mountain - gonna shine your light
Wanna row your river darlin' -oh if it takes all night
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Watcha gonna do without a shoulder to lean on
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Never wanna lose ya - ya know we gotta fight
Never said it'd be easy girl - but ya know we'll get it right...
If it takes all night
