Lyrics Ella Henderson

Ella Henderson

Empire

(Build on love and we’ll...)

I see your light

I know it’s coming and I’m terrified

No more defences here to hide behind

Oh, just you and I

And through the smoke

I see you burning like a ray of hope

I found the fire now the ashes glow

Oh, I come alive

And now that I’m awake

I’m not afraid

I’m letting go tonight

‘Cause we found strength in each others’ arms

We built this love and we made it our

Empire, empire, empire

And you and I can rule each others’ hearts

We’ll build on love and we’ll make it our

Empire, empire, empire

Stone by stone

We’ll build a tower we can call our own

So high that we’ll forget the world below

Oh, just you and I, I

So let the drums roll

The cannons blow

We’re letting go tonight

‘Cause we found strength in each others’ arms

We built this love and we made it our

Empire, empire, empire

And you and I can rule each others’ hearts

We’ll build on love and we’ll make it our

Empire, empire, empire

They’ll never take it down

Take it down

Burn it down

Burn us down

Take it down

Take down our empire

They’ll never take it down

Take it down

Burn it down

Burn us down

Take it down

Take down our empire

‘Cause we found strength in each others’ arms

We built this love and we made it our

Empire, empire, empire

And you and I can rule each others’ hearts

We’ll build on love and we’ll make it our

Empire, empire, empire

They’ll never take it down

Take it down

Burn it down

Burn us down

Take it down

Take down our empire
