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
the gamble the sleep and now we dance
we stumble up and down the concrete
led by distraction the empty attraction keeps us blind
never intending for the complete
like shadows in alley ways
the unknown continues biding time
we're chasing heaven as it fades into black
can't get it back, no we can't get it back
it's like we're running crazy 8's 'round the track
can't wait to come back, can't wait to come back
could you stay with me tonight?
(we sleep for dreaming and away it goes)
and i'll make you believe one last time
(and let you feel it as my heart explodes)
we sit and drink up on the cop car
playing illegally, the boredom of fantasy, we're 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 faces into black
can't get it back, no we can't 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 for dreaming and away it goes)
and i'll make you believe one last time
(and let you feel it as my heart explodes)
could you stay with me tonight?
(we sleep for dreaming and away it goes)
and i'll make you believe one last time
(and let you feel it 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 chase the sensation on blind appeal?
have we now reached the end just to find the beginning again?
stay with me tonight?
(we sleep for dreaming and away it goes)
and i'll make you believe one last time
(and let you feel it as my heart explodes)
could you stay with me tonight?
(we sleep for dreaming and away it goes)
and i'll make you believe one last time
(and let you feel it as my heart explodes)
could you stay with me tonight?
we're chasing heaven as it fades to black
could you stay with me tonight?
it's like we're running crazy 8's 'round the track
