Empires
[Verse 1]
Hold me close, pull me closer
Oh, feel the rhythm of my heart
Although I know every word
In the books I've read
I know nothing, I'm illiterate
In the language of love
[Chorus]
Ooh
I don't need empires
They'd mean nothing, nothing
If I can't have you
Ooh
No empires
It's a dark road to roam
If I should lose you
[Verse 2]
Nothing stays the same
I've learned my lesson well
If you wish too hard
It eludes you just the same
[Refrain]
But my love is young, it's young
It burns the edges of my heart
I'm dying for ya
[Chorus]
Ooh
No empires
Would mean nothing, nothing
If I can't have you
Ooh
No empires
It's a dark road to roam
If I should lose you
[Verse 3]
Do you wanna dance with me?
I know it's late, they wanna close up this place
But hold on tight to me, tight to me
I feel your touch burning
Through the waistline of my jeans
[Refrain]
And your love is young, is young
It burns the edges of my heart
I'm dying for ya
[Outro]
It's a dark road to roam
If I should lose you
