You know whats right You've known for a while Oh I've got dreams to tell Dreams of you and no one else They were wrong to think this could make you satisfied For me it's just a silhouette of what could be greater still One by one we've come to grow old together And I still have such life to fulfill But it is so lonely, without you by my side I'm building an ark tonight I hope we are ready We're nowhere near this last breath Time to rocksteady I'm building an ark tonight Will we be ready? I'm aware that this life line one day lets you down I'm building an ark tonight Will we be ready? Gotta get through this night I hope we are ready I'm aware that at the right time one day you'll be back We're building an ark tonight Gotta be ready They know me, they know me better than myself Like a window wanting to bring in the light Lonely me, I alone can ring memory Feels so real like yesterday When captured by the sea was the sun
