Lyrics

We were racing down a road littered with crosses

We were traveling on a road filled with crosses, suggesting a challenging journey or a path marked by difficulties.


Right down to Jalama beach and even though we missed the sunset

Heading towards Jalama beach, despite missing the sunset, indicating a pursuit of experiences even if timing is not perfect.

We jumped over barbed wire and cacti

Jumping over barbed wire and cacti to reach the sea, reflecting a willingness to overcome obstacles for shared adventures.

Just to fall into the sea, skinny dipping' youngin's, you and I

Engaging in skinny dipping, portraying a carefree and intimate moment between the speaker and their companion.


We're built to last

Repetition of "We're built to last" emphasizes resilience and enduring strength in the relationship.

We're built to last

-

Oh, We're built to last

-

We're built to last

-

Well now it's clear you're the wind and I'm the wave

Describing the speaker and their partner as complementary forces - one being the wind and the other the wave.

Oh together we can brave all the things we never knew

Expressing the belief that together, they can face and conquer unknown challenges.

So I'm making room on a boat I built for one

Creating space on a boat for one, implying a commitment to accommodate the other in their individual pursuits.

We can sail into the sun, till our skin's as tough as diamonds

Sailing towards the sun, symbolizing a journey towards a brighter and enduring future with strengthened resilience.

Oh We're built to last

Continued affirmation of their lasting strength and resilience as a couple.

We're built to last

-

If our ship does sink we will follow it like stones

In the face of adversity, expressing a commitment to stay together and face challenges as a united front.

From the wreckage build a home

If their relationship faces challenges ("ship does sink"), they will rebuild and create a home from the wreckage.

From the wreckage build a home
