(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
It's like I hear Whitney say
In the song you always used to play
When you're feeling down and out and your world is filled with doubt
Then love is gonna save the day
Well anybody you ever met
Love is all they used to get
And now we only got each other
But its been nothing but love ever since you left, you see
Because you saw the star in everyone
Everybody's inner icon
Your confidence became our confidence
And the little piece of you in all of us is how you shine on
You gotta build people up
Because there's no limit to love
It breeds and it spreads and you catch it, contagious
So I'm gon' keep building till we're all skyscrapers
You build me up like a building site
Never to be finished but you made rise a little more high
I tried and I tried
But I been under construction for some time
Now we're feeling broken
The foundations that you laid made me strong
And I'll remember that for the rest of my life
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up)
I always have the moment on a first date
When they say, "what do you do," I say, "well mate
I dress up like Gail Platt, make myself look like a twat
Yeah, I get all up in drag and do videos and rap"
And normally they say, "okay"
But you come along and you say
"You're amazing, that's iconic, I can't wait to tell my friends
You'll have to meet them, oh they'll love Monopoly Phonic," ha!
I'm so grateful that I met you
I'm grateful I met your friends too
And I'm grateful I become one
You know you'll always be my fave hun
Dark clouds in my mind like cranes in the sky
On the night that you died Ariana gave us life
Like you did with your light, shine on in the sky
Fly high buttlerfly, build me up, building site
You build me up like a building site
Never to be finished but you made rise a little more high
I tried and I tried
But I been under construction for some time
Now we're feeling broken
The foundations that you laid made me strong
And I'll remember that for the rest of my life
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
You build me up like a building site
Never to be finished but you made rise a little more hi-i-i-i
(You build me up, you build me up)
(Like a building site)
You build me up like a building site
Never to be finished but you made rise a little more hi-i-i-i
You build me up like a building site
Never to be finished but you made rise a little more high
I tried and I tried
But I been under construction for some time
Now we're feeling broken
The foundations that you laid made me strong
And I'll remember that for the rest of my life
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up, you build me up)
(You build me up)
