It's like the world is waiting  For a sign from our hearts  A signal to start  I feel my chains are breaking  Emotional barriers  That have kept us apart  All of our lives wasted  On blind ambition  We need the time to try  We've got the right key  Turned in the wrong direction  The right dream  Waking up too fast  It's a long road  Full of good intentions  And, Girl, if we take it  I know we can make it last  Why don't we  Talk it over  There on our battlefield  Surrender together  Yeah  And while the world is watching  We'll send out a message that will  Last forever  All of our lives wanting  The right conditions  We need the time to try  We've got the right key  Turned in the wrong direction  The right dream  Waking up too fast  It's a long road  Full of good intentions  And, Girl, if we take it  I know we can make it last  We can make it  Girl, we can make it last  We can make it last, baby  Girl, if we take it  I know we can make it last
