VERSE 1

I said,

remember this moment,

in the back of my mind.

The time we stood with,

our shaking hands,

the crowds in stands,

went wild.

We were

the Kings and the Queens,

And they read off our names.

The night you danced like you knew

our lives

would never be the same.

You held your head

like a hero,

on a history book page.

It was the end of a decade,

but the start of an age.

CHORUS

Long Live

The walls we crashed through.

All the kingdom lights shined

just for me and you.

I was screaming,

Long Live

All the magic we made.

And bring on all the pretenders.

One day,

we will be remembered.

VERSE 2

I said

remember this feeling.

I passed the pictures around.

Of all the years that we stood there,

on the sidelines,

wishing for right now.

We are

the Kings and the Queens.

You traded your baseball cap,

for a crown.

When they gave us our trophies,

and we held them up,

for our town.

Then the cynics were outraged.

Screaming this is absurd.

Cuz for a moment,

a band of theives,

in ripped up jeans,

got to rule the world.

CHORUS

Long Live

The walls we crashed through.

All the kingdom lights shined,

just for me and you.

I was screaming,

Long Live

All the magic we made.

And bring on all the pretenders,

I'm not afraid.

Long Live

All the mountains we moved.

I had the time of my life,

fighting dragons with you.

I was screaming,

Long Live

That look on your face.

And bring on all the pretenders.

One day,

We will be remembered.

BRIDGE

Hold on,

to spinning around.

Confetti,

falls to the ground.

May these memories,

break our fall.

Will you take a moment,

promise me this.

That you'll stand by me forever.

But if god forbids,

fate should step in.

And force us into a goodbye.

If you have children someday,

and when they point to

the pictures,

please tell them my name.

Tell them how

the crowds went wild.

Tell them how

I hope they shine.

CHORUS

Long Live

The walls we crashed through.

I had the time of my life,

With you.

Long Long Live

The walls we crashed through.

How the kingdom lights shined,

Just for me and you.

And I was screaming,

Long Live

All the magic we made.

And bring on all the pretenders.

I'm not afraid.

Singing,

Long Live

All the mountains we moved.

I had the time of my life,

fighting dragons with you.

Long Long Live

That look on your face.

And bring on all the pretenders.

One day,

We will be remembered.
