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 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
