"As Long As We're Here" lyrics

Why do we have to fight?
Why can't spend our time trying?
I wanna be close to you
Keep love from slipping through
My hands

The words said in anger
Aimed at someone
Are hard to take back once the damage is done
Let's stop now

As long as we're here
Alive on this earth
I'm gonna love you
For all that it's worth
And one of these days
We're gonna understand why
Let's make the most of of our time
As long as we're here

Some people live their lives
Holding their fears inside them
Afraid to build windows
To let the light of the world in

They hide in the darkness
Of self-imposed walls
If they could just tear them down
They'd have it all

As long as we're here
Alive on this earth
I'm gonna love you
For all that it's worth
And one of these days
We're gonna understand why
Let's make the most of of our time
As long as we're here

When you're with me
I breathe easy
You are my need
Right now love me

As long as we're
As long as we're here
I'm gonna love you
And one of these days
We're gonna understand why

As long as we're here
Alive on this earth
I'm gonna love you
For all that it's worth
And one of these days
We're gonna understand why

Let's make the most of of our time
Oh, make the most of our time
As long as we're here
As long as we're here
