Monument lyrics

I built a monument to every word that`s passed between us
I built a monument to stand through history
And I`ll watch the hourglass the time will pass
And you`ll rue the day love you ever strayed so far from me

I built a monument to make the time more easy passing
I built a monument to stand up straight and free
When all`s been said and done the time will come
And it might be soon love, you`ll see it more romantically

I built a monument to all we were
I built a monument to me and her
And now she`s coming back
The roof is cracked and the walls are falling
As all those bitter words will flow back to the sea

I`ll watch the hourglass the time will pass
And you`ll rue the day love you ever strayed so far from me

I built a monument to all we were
I built a monument to me and her
