Make it last, make it last
You, me together
Make it last, make it last
Now, forever, now start
One second, two seconds, I reckon
We'll have a blast if we make it last.
When I was a young girl, I would not walk
I thought, why walk when you can run there?
An hour took forever, a day dragged on and on
Even summer always seemed to last too long
But now that I'm grown , it's the days that run away
I walk at a leisurely pace
And the people I've known mostly haven't stayed
Or when we pass in the street, we don't smile, we don't speak
Make it last, make it last
You, me together
Make it last, make it last
Now, forever, now start
One second, two seconds, I reckon
We'll have a blast if we make it last.
Banging, banging, banging on the big door of love
Never got me anywhere
Now that I've found you I do not want to, I don't want to have to share
I leave you in the morning, I leave you on the bed
And I'm floating on air until the sundown.
But now we're already staring into the bottom of our bottle of red
Singing 'da da da da, da de da de day'
Everything goes so fast
So can you make it last?
Can you?
Make it last, make it last
You, me together
Make it last, make it last
Now, forever, now start
One second, two seconds, I reckon
We'll have a blast if we make it last.
