what does "i will last as long sa you"mean? does you=Bluff House? Through the chilly curtain of sleet, in the inter-mittent wash of the great light on the jutting cliff to the south, the massive silhouette of Bluff House loomed over Whiskey Beach. It faced the cold, turbulent Atlantic like a challenge. I will last as long as you. Standing three sturdy and indulgent stories above the rough and rugged coast, it watched the roll and slap of waves through the dark eyes of windows, as it had—in one incarnation or another—for more than three centuries. The little stone cottage now housing tools and garden supplies spoke to its humble beginnings, to those who’d braved the fierce and fickle Atlantic to forge a life on the stony ground of a new world. Dwarfing those beginnings, the spread and rise of golden sand walls and curving gables, the generous terraces of weathered local stone sang to its heyday. It survived storm, neglect, careless indulgence, dubious taste, the booms and the busts, scandal and righteousness.

Bluff House figuratively answers the Atlantic Ocean (you).

Bluff house is personified here. The sentence should be read as if Bluff House is addressing the ocean. I (Bluff House) will last as long as you (the ocean).
