[SARA]
Terrified, I am
Every single day
Petrified, I am
And I'm not wood or clay
[MICHAEL]
How long, you ask?
Heavy like rock and gla**
Are we expected to swim
While we are drowning within?
[TOM]
Don't ask how long
We're built for longing
Don't ask how long
We're built for longing
[NARRATOR]
We can fantasize
About a good man and try
Try to float, not sink
Through our lives
[SARA]
And I think:
Everyone can sympathize
We all want the sun and skies
[MICHAEL]
Maybe a baby or two
A better life, I promise you
[SARA & NARRATOR]
Don't ask how long
We're built for longing
Don't ask how long
Cause every answer's wrong
You and me
Are made for wanting
[MICHAEL & TOM]
We're always gonna want for something
[TOM]
Everyone can sympathize
We want the moon and the skies
Start again, our lives brand new
[MICHAEL & SARA]
The life I used to come home to
[ALL]
Don't ask how long
We're built for longing
Don't ask how long
Cause every answer's wrong
You and me
Are made for wanting
We're always gonna want for something
We are made for the wanting
We'll always want for something
We are made for the wanting
Built for longing
