Elijah Blake - Towers of Tokyo lyrics

rate me

As the words hit my ear

And her eyes cut me deep

Knew I was only five heartbeats away

From losing everything I believed

It was mine 'cause I had it

Not because I deserved it

No matter how I try to play it off like I'm not hurting

You see it on the surface

I'm a fool in love

That parts obvious

Baby, baby

Just like carpenters

We can build from the ground up and fix it

Build it high and build it up

Like the towers of Tokyo

Give it structure

Build it strong

Like a tower

We'll never fall

See everything I could need

Is standing right in front of me

Nothing more, nothing less

I'm not concerned about the rest

I'm amazed and I'm ashamed

Could've left me but you stayed

See it was all fun and games

'Til my blue skies turned to rain

I'm a fool in love

That parts obvious

Baby, baby

Just like carpenters

Build from the ground up but this time we're gonna fix it

Build it high and build it up

Like the towers of Tokyo

Give it structure

Build it strong

Like a tower

We'll never fall

Has any-anybody ever felt like

Your life's about to flash before your eye

And all you can say is ooh..

I'm a fool in love

That parts obvious

Baby, baby

Just like carpenters

We can build from the ground up and fix it

Build it high and build it up

Like the towers of Tokyo

Give it structure

Build it strong

Like a tower

We'll never fall

Then the towers of Tokyo

See I was content with giving you less

Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no

This time I'm going to build it stronger

Stronger and wider
