And we hide away, love the night away, And we run between the shadows and the light, Well we rifle through the night, Like riders on the run now, in the street-- Holding back the blinding light, 'cause a thousand eyes can be so indiscreet, We're children

Ring like silver, ring like gold Turn these diamonds straight back into coal Remember when our songs were just like prayers Like gospel hymns that you caught in the air? Come down, come down sweet reverence Unto my simple house and ring Ring out those

Give me somethin' to ride to And forget about life to The kind you wanna get high to Lay back in the night to Yeah used to be dance songs Slow jams and romance songs But now that she's gone and the radio's on Yeah I just want one that don't sing about

They said it was too late for us But we are coming back to life A little every time we touch I wanna run away tonight I feel like I'm in love with you Tomorrow we can face the lie Right now, let's just Sunset rolling, summer stolen

Oh baby doll! When bells ring out the summer free Oh baby doll We'll sing our old Alma Mater And think of things that used to be Will it end for you and me? I remember it so well Back when the weather was cool We used to have so much fun

I know that you know You might not think that I care But you don't know what I know Give me a minute there Just a minute now It'll come back to me Freewheelin' troubadour You took my mind off the scene Damn all those people who don't lose control

You need a doctor baby you scared? If only he knew Just stand up and scream the tainted clock is counting down You gave in to me would you say the nights are far too long now? Your knife my back My gun your head If only he knew about the world Without

This is my fight song Take back my life song Prove I'm alright song My power's turned on I'll play my fight song And I don't really care if nobody else believes 'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me Like a small boat On the ocean

Least you can do is give me back my heart Just give me back my heart I won't come around no more You won't find me standing outside your door I was lying awake last night, waiting for your call But if the rumors are true, that won't bother you at all I'm

I.O.I.I.I.I.I.O.I.O. But she went back down the river Just when I thought I could be strong You know I love getting up in the morning When the sun first strikes the trees All the morning birds that sing above Still bring back memories
