These lights and numbers are a bright sign Smoke filled casinos But what do we know We'll take a chance Looking for cheap thrills and fast rides Spin till we're dizzy Then gamble the sleep and now we dance
We stumble up and down the concrete Led by distraction The empty attraction leads us blind Never intending for the complete Like shadows and alleyways The unknown continues biding time
We're chasing heaven as it fades into black Can't get it back no we cannot get it back It's like we're running crazy 8's around the track Can't wait to come back, Can't wait to come back
Could you stay with me tonight? We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes And I think you'll believe one last time You've got that feeling as my heart explodes
Sit your drink up on the cop car Playing illegally I'm bored of the fantasy I'm done I've never ever loved you so hard But is that reality? We can't face the battle in the dark
We're chasing heaven as it fades into black Can't get it back no we cannot get it back It's like we're running crazy 8's around the track Can't wait to come back, Can't wait to come back
Could you stay with me tonight? We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes And I think you'll believe one last time You've got that feeling as my heart explodes
We sit, we think, and we figure Out just right where to start As these waters rush together We keep ripping them apart Is this truth, is this real, is there something more to feel? Do we change the sensation on the line again? Have we now reached the end just to find the beginning again?
Could you stay with me tonight? We sleep we're dreaming and away it goes And I think you'll believe one last time You've got that feeling as my heart explodes
