Survived tonight
I may be going down
'Cos everything goes round too
Tight, tonight
And as you watch me crawl
You stand for more
And your panic stricken
Blood will thicken up tonight
'Cos I don't want you to forgive me
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
Survived tonight
I see your head's exposed
So we shall kill
Constructive might
It's so right as your emotions fool you
My strong will rule
And your panic stricken
Blood will thicken up tonight
'Cos I don't want you to forgive me
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
I won't feel restraint
Watching you close sense down
I can't compensate
That's more than I've got to give
And your panic stricken
Blood will thicken up tonight
'Cos I don't want you to forgive me
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
'Cos I don't want you to forgive me
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
You'll follow me down
You can't spend your life living underground
For from above you don't hear a sound
And I'm out here, waiting
I don't understand what you want me to be
It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am
But I know that it's all that you see
No life's so short that it never learns
No flame so small that it never burns
No page so sure that it never turns
And I'm out here, waiting
I don't understand what you want me to be
It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am
But I know that it's all that you see
(bridge)
Can you live your life in a day, putting every moment in play?
Never hear a word that they say as the wheels go around
Tell me if you win would it show - in a thousand years, who would know?
As a million lives come and go on this same piece of ground
(simultaneously)
Can you live your life in a day I've been waiting
Putting every moment in play?
Never hear a word that they say I don't understand what you want me to be
As the wheels go around
Tell me if you win would it show It's the dark you're hating
In a thousand years, who would know?
As a million lives come and go It's not who I am, but it is what you see
On this same piece of ground
(simultaneously)
1:
I've been waiting
I don't understand what you want me to be
It's the dark you're hating
It's not who I am, but it is what you see
2:
/Can you live your life in a day
Putting every moment in play?
/Never hear a word that they say
As the wheels go around
/Tell me if you win would it show
In a thousand years, who would know?
/As a million lives come and go
On this same piece of ground
3:
/Tell me would you really want to
See me leave this night without you
/Would you ever look about you
Wondering where we might be
/New York is so far away now
Tokyo, Berlin and Moscow
/Only dreams from here but somehow
One day that world we will see
(simultaneously again, except substitute this for stanza 1 and clip last three syllables of the last line of stanzas 2 and 3)
1:
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand
I don't understand...
(together, immediately)
...what I see.
(solo)
(coda)
I swear on tomorrow, if you take this chance
Our lives are this moment, the music - the dance
And here in this labyrinth of lost mysteries
I close my eyes on this night and you're all that I see
You're all that I see
If you long to meet again...
Downcast eyes, lifetime loneliness
Whatever walks in my heart will walk alone
Constant longing for the perfect soul
Unwashed scenery forever gone
No love left in me
No eyes to see the heaven beside me
My time is yet to come
So I'll be forever yours
If you long to meet again...
my heart's like a stone
there's no fear, there's no fire
a life without desire
My mind works cold and clear
my heart shrouded in stony fear
for i'll never break again
and nothing can drive me insane
And it feels like I've sold my soul
And it feels like I've lost my heart
And it seems like I've signed this contract
with my blood
So I won't hold you in my arms
can't give you tenderness
there are no caresses
my live without emotion
Sometimes I feel like there's something missing
then I'm drowning in endless sadness
and I would give anything
if I could only feel something
And it feels like I've sold my soul
And it feels like I've lost my heart
And it seems like I've signed this contract
with my blood
Sometimes I can feel you
I can feel your emotions
And it feels like I've sold my soul
And it feels like I've lost my heart
And it seems like I've signed this contract
with my blood
I'm gonna be with you
And no one's gonna be around
If you think that you won't fall
Well just wait until, 'till the sun goes down
Underneath the starlight starlight
There's a magical feeling so right
It will steal your heart tonight
You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark you'll surrender your heart
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight,
No-o you can't fight it
It's gonna get to you'r heart
There's no escaping love
Once a gentle breeze (once a gentle breeze)
Sweeps it's spell upon your heart
And no matter what you think
It won't be to long
'Till your in my arms
Underneath the starlight starlight
We'll be lost in the rythm so right
It will steal your heart tonight
You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark you'll surrender your heart
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight,
No-o you can't fight it
No-o matter what you do
The night is gonna get to you.
(Your gonna know)
(That I know)
Don't try you're never gonna win
Underneath the starlight starlight
There's a magical feeling so right
It will steal your heart tonight
You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark you'll surrender your heart
But you know, but you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight,
No-o you can't fight it
You can't hide it with a lie
What's the use in you denying
The words you have at home
I heard her promise you forever
But forevers come and go
Baby she would say whatever
It takes to keep you alive
Tell the truth between the lines
I will love you more than that
I won't say those words, then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say
(I will love you more than that)
Baby you deserve much better
What's the use in holding on
Don't you see it's now or never
Just why you can't be friends
Baby knowing in the end
There's not a day that passes by
I don't wonder why we haven't tried
It's not too late to change your mind
And take my hand, don't say goodbye
I will love you more than that
I won't say those words, then take them back
