Built To Last

Music and lyrics by John Reese

You say when it comes down to push and shove
There's just no time to waste on love
Got to keep moving, moving fast as you can
Better get it now or maybe never again

Our lives are spent in the blink of an eye
When seen in the grander design
Before they're over they've started again
Catching a moment and letting it spin
Catching a moment and letting it spin
Catching a moment and letting it spin

You say that love is just a waste of time
Might be wasting yours but it's not wasting mine
It's what makes my whole life feel worthwhile
When it's missing feels like I'm exiled

You say that lovers are born to fail
I say only our choices prevail
You say that true hearts a thing of the past
I say that true love it's Built To Last
I say that true love is Built To Last
I say that true love ... it's Built To Last
It's Built To Last
It's Built To Last
