I built a monument
to every word that passed between us
and i built a monument
to stand through history
And i watch the hourglass
the time will pass
you'll rue the day, love, (?)
when you ever strayed so far from me
I built a monument
to make the time more easy passing
and i built a monument
to stand up straight for me
When all is said and done
the time will come
it might be too low
you'll see a more romantic me
I built a monument
to all we were
i built a monument
to me and her
Now she's coming back
the roof is cracked
and the walls are falling
and all those bitter words
will flow back to the sea
And i watch the hourglass
the time will pass
you'll rue the day, love, (?)
when you ever strayed so far from me
I built a monument
to all we were
i built a monument
to me and her
And only we can knock it down now
I built a monument
to all we were
i built a monument
to me and her
I built a monument
to all we were
i built a monument
to me and her
