I recall dark desert starlight
We had the passion in our eyes
But yours was not for real, like mine
Only two bodies in the dark
To you, that's all we ever were
I know that I will never learn
Pick me up for one last time
Let me be yours only for a night
Ghost of love, you can't let this die
I miss that summer you would let me drive
The racin' hearts, and drippin' sweat
Been dreamin' of it ever since
I'll never need another plan
To feel you in my atmosphere
Be with you anywhere but here
Let's get the car runnin'
Pick me up for one last time
Let me be yours only for a night
Ghost of love, you can't let this die
I miss that summer you would let me drive

I tried to tell you just how much you
Mean to me but I can’t get it out
So I wrote it down and put it on your pillow
But the words just seem insufficient now
And yeah I did it
I cut my hair off
I needed change I could control
But I can hide it if
It’s just one-sided and
You don’t say anything at all
Now the world is going crazy
And the numbers lie and
We’re running out of money and patience too
But the hardest part is knowing
That I can’t see you at all
I know the years will keep on passing
And I’ll keep visiting on holidays
But there’s something ‘bout the way you always know me
And I wish I could have that each and every day
And yeah I did it
I cut my hair off
It got too out of my control
But I can’t hide it if
I know you’re right and
You don’t say anything at all
Now the world is going crazy
And the people cry and
We’re running out of money and innocence too
But the hardest part is knowing
That I can’t see you at all

Way back when we made a clubhouse in the trees
It kept out the monsters
We weren’t worried about a thing
And now that we’re tainted by how the world made us
All that we do is complain ya
We’re caught up in the races
Babe let’s go back and play pretend
Like we’re not worried ‘bout the end
How things will go, just ignorant bliss
I wanna live like we were kids
We used to fight off all the evil we would see
Holding up our swords
Who knew I’d end up being yours
Ya we would imagine we could fight dragons
But now the dreams that we had are all fading
We weren’t meant to get lazy
Babe let’s go back and play pretend
Like we’re not worried ‘bout the end
How things will go, just ignorant bliss
I wanna live like we were kids
It’s still you and me
Against it all
Let’s think big like we were small
Let’s fly like we did
When we were jumping off the playground swings

I know you’ve been looking for me
I could tell you but I’d rather see you work for it, willingly
My peaches got you wanting more
If it comes it goes, what you waiting for?
Got you now, in the palm of my hands
Got you now (got you now)
Chase me love, ‘til your heart is broken
In the palm of my hands
I thought I knew all, you’re taming wild things
It’s like I’ve been woke from a damaged dream
Make me feel light, you’re taming wild things
You’re taming wild things
Got you now, in the palm of my hands
Got you now (got you now)
Chase me love, ‘til your heart is broken
In the palm of my hands
We could stay forever
We could stay forever
Got you now, in the palm of my hands
Got you now (got you now)
Chase me love, ‘til your heart is broken
In the palm of my hands
Got you now (got you now)
Got you now, ‘til your heart is broken
Chase me love (chase me love)
Got you now, in my hands

I'm reminiscin' 'bout this and that
What we said, what we laughed at
Seems like such a mystery
When we just laid a marker
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
When you said to me you'd be right back
I had no reason to doubt that
You seemed to be such a diplomat
When we would get it started
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
Just lookin' for a place to start
Start, woah oh
I like to think when I'm looking out the window
Staring back at me look at the sunrise
So remember me, oh
Another momеnt that will never be, oh
Takе the time
Make some sense
Think about
The consequence
When I'm lookin' at you
When you're lookin' at me
Wonder what it would be
Wonder what it could be
I like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Depends now what you wanna see
The outside or the heart in me
Takin' down my anxiety
The inside is underwater
Wanna spend time looking in my heart
Wanna spend time looking in my heart
Hey!
It's an ever-changin' scenery
I'm just along for the journey
Try to take in the imagery
Landscapes they are colliding
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
Wanna spend time lookin' in my heart
Just lookin' for a place to start
Start, woah oh
I like to think when I'm looking out the window
Staring back at me look at the sunrise
So remember me, oh
Another moment that will never be, oh
Take the time
Make some sense
Think about
The consequence
When I'm lookin' at you
When you're lookin' at me
Wonder what it would be
Wonder what it could be
I like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Like to think when I'm lookin' out the window (Oh)
Window, window
Window, window (Oh)
I like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Like to think when I'm lookin' out the window (Oh)
Window, window
Window, window
Window, window
Window, window
Window, window (Take some time)
I like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Like to think when I'm lookin' out the window (Take some time)
Window, window
Window, window (Take some time)
I like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
Like to think when I'm lookin' out the window
I like to think when I'm looking out the window
Staring back at me look at the sunrise
So remember me, oh
Another moment that will never be, oh
Take the time
Make some sense
Think about
The consequence
When I'm lookin' at you
When you're lookin' at me
Wonder what it would be
Wonder what it could be

"Okay, roll tape."
Oh take me from this state, I wanna be awake again
Dream walking all the time, this is no life for human beings
Everyone sleeping at the wheel
Let’s choose a destination
You’ve got the magic baby
I’ve got the car just get in
Let’s get out, get out, get out
To somewhere we feel alive
No better time but now
For screaming our dreams to the night
We don’t gotta be silent
Let it all out, we’ve been waiting
It’s time we come out of hiding
We were never meant to be quiet
Oh let me lift off all this weight that you’ve been carrying
Too heavy for one man, it don’t make sense to hold it in
Forget the giving up, I know we got a chance to make it
Take your pretty head and shake it
Time to wake up, why you waiting
Let’s get out, get out, get out
To somewhere we feel alive
No better time but now
For screaming our dreams to the night
We don’t gotta be silent
Let it all out, we’ve been waiting
It’s time we come out of hiding
We were never meant to be quiet
Let’s get out, get out, get out
To somewhere we feel alive
No better time but now
For screaming our dreams to the night
We don’t gotta be silent
Let it all out, we’ve been waiting
It’s time we come out of hiding
We were never meant to be quiet
Let’s get out, get out, get out
To somewhere we feel alive
No better time but now
For screaming our dreams to the night
We don’t gotta be silent
Let it all out, we’ve been waiting
It’s time we come out of hiding
We were never meant to be quiet

Running around the same old basement, making up rules that don’t mean nothing
Take all the pain and put it away (long, long way down; long, long way)
Each lie is wasted, I will be happy
Won’t let it hurt me (long, long way down; long, long way)
Time has no speed when you’re faded, pick up the key but you can’t use it
While you were high, I found the exit (long, long way down; long, long way)
Hope you enjoyed this, now I must leave you
Rid all the bad news (long, long way down; long, long way)
Say goodbye
I won’t cry
Say goodbye
I won’t cry

She makes me crazy
Doesn't have a vicious bone in her body
Well, it ain't tasteful
She says she hates me
And later on, she says she's sorry
She's sorry
Thinking of these things (Hold it down)
Holding him down, and pulling off his wings
Thinking of these things
Holding him down, and pulling off his wings
Blonde and blue
I'm troubled and misused
Living without you
My heart is yours
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
We'll always be together
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
My heart is yours
It's armor plated
You hooked up your heart
And amplified it
Now if you're hated
You do so much to override it
Yeah, override it
Thinking of these things (Hold it down)
Holding him down, and pulling off his wings
Thinking of these things
Holding him down, and pulling off his wings
Blonde and blue
I'm troubled and misused
Living without you
My heart is yours
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
We'll always be together
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
My heart is yours
Blonde and blue
I'm troubled and misused
Living without you
My heart is yours
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
We'll always be together
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
My heart is yours
Blonde and blue
I'm troubled and misused
Living without you
My heart is yours
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
We'll always be together
Yeah, nothing lasts forever
My heart is yours

We must have came unplugged
Crossed a wire somewhere
I'm not getting a signal from you no
From you no more
Blind to a fading love
I couldn't see it wasn't there
Now I can't help but feel that it's over
Can't be over
I'll wait for you in a different dimension
Lost in space time
A missed connection
See you out there
Out there with the satellites
Lost in space time
We'll meet again in another life
If the timing isn't right
And you need more space
I will give you anything you want, yeah
You want, yeah
I can see it in your eyes
A million miles away
But I'm standin' here still watching you walk away
You walk away
I'll wait for you in a different dimension
Lost in space time
A missed connection
See you out there
Out there with the satellites
Lost in space time
We'll meet again in another life
I'm just trying to understand it
Cuz I know we're meant to be baby
Sometimes it's not like you planned it
But I hope fate takes you back to me
I'm just trying to understand it
Cuz I know we're meant to be baby
Sometimes it's not like you planned it
But I hope fate takes you back to me
I'll wait for you in a different dimension
Lost in space time
A missed connection
See you out there
Out there with the satellites
Lost in space time
We'll meet again in another life

"You need to listen.
You know we're all in this together.
We can really make it if we try."
"I think we should get this thing started."
"Greatest night of our lives"
I know the world has got you down
And you think that you'd be better off somewhere else
But I've seen the grass, and it ain't always greener
I think that you can bloom here
Maybe you just need some time
Or perhaps to tell yourself that it'll be alright
You can trust the journey that you're walking, darling
I know we'll make it through
Maybe a moment, maybe a dream
When filling in the space between
Just keep a smile and an open mind
Could be the greatest night of our lives
It's always magic when your hand's in mine
I meant it when I said you make me feel alive
I swear it happens almost every time
Could be the greatest, greatest night of our lives
The greatest night of our lives
Of our lives
There's so much waiting here for you
And you tell yourself there's nothing but, baby, you're wrong
There are wonders wondering when you will see them
Just open up your eyes
Maybe a moment, maybe a dream
When filling in the space between
Just keep a smile and an open mind
Could be the greatest night of our lives
It's always magic when your hand's in mine
I meant it when I said you make me feel alive
I swear it happens almost every time
Could be the greatest, greatest night of our lives
The greatest night of our lives
Just open up your eyes
And we'll have the greatest night of our lives
Maybe a moment, maybe a dream (Maybe it's not a dream)
When filling in the space between (Keep it up, just keep it up)
Just keep a smile and an open mind (Because this could be, this could be)
Could be the greatest night of our lives
It's always magic when your hand's in mine (I know)
I meant it when I said you make me feel alive (Yes, you make me feel alive)
I swear it happens almost every time
Could be the greatest, greatest night of our lives

Stop talking, silence is golden
Holding your breath till you wanna scream
So you open your mouth
But the words don’t come out
You’ve got a minute to win it
And everything that comes with it
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right into the great wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right in with your eyes wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Heart breaks and you fall apart
And you don’t know who you are
Another face in the crowd
There’s no easy way out
One foot in front of the other
Deep breath and then take another
Forget about them
Forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right into the great wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right in with your eyes wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Do you want something more than ordinary
I want a life that’s more than legendary, oh
Stop talking crazy cause maybe it isn’t
Supposed to go down like this
Could be love after all
Or just somewhere to fall
So count me in if you lose it
And wanna do something stupid
Jump
Right into the great wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right in with your eyes wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right into the great wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right in with your eyes wide open
Forget about them, forget about us
Forget about the world and just
Jump
Right into the great wide open

Shock of energy
It’s electric
You’re my fever dream
That I’ll never quit
Turn the fantasy
Into Power
I won’t let it go to waste
The magic hour
Time to cause and
Get a reaction
Time to kill the switch
Make it happen
I’ll Take the night song
I’m gunna make it ours
Elysium
When I’m in your arms
Lately all I see
When I close my eyes
Has been you and me
Under neon lights
Gotta take this dream
Make it do or die
I’m gunna get you to dance with me this time
Under those neon lights
When I’m with you
It’s automatic
It’s my heartland
Place of magic
Oh that dance floor
Always in my head
It’s my heaven
All that I wanted
Started a fire
And it smoulders
Tired of living
Just to get older
I’ll take the night song
I’m gunna make it ours
Elysium
When I’m your arms
Lately all I see
When I close my eyes
Has been you and me
Under neon lights
Gotta take this dream
Make it do or die
I’m gunna get you to dance with me this time
Under those neon lights
So tired of wishing and a dreaming of
All the things I that I woulda done
I shoulda done
The first time I saw you there that night
I won’t let hours keep slipping on
Believing your already gone
Cuz I need your love
And now I’m dead set on you and I
Lately all I see
When I close my eyes
Has been you and me
Under neon lights
Gotta take this dream
Make it do or die
I’m gunna get you to dance with me this time
Under those neon lights

Can we meet downtown?
At the spot where sun goes down
When there's no one around
Maybe you could bring me back to the ground
And you know you've got a place in my heart
And the city spires on fire, on fire
And it's like I'm walking alone in the dark
And the city's on fire, on fire, on fire
Can we meet after dark?
I know the place, can we meet at Millennium Park?
And it's just me and you
I don't know but I hope that this feeling is true
And you know you've got a place in my heart
And the city spires on fire, on fire
And it's like I'm walking alone in the dark
And the city's on fire, on fire, on fire
And you know you've got a place in my heart
And the city spires on fire, on fire
And you like to take me right back to the start
And the city's on fire, on fire, on fire
And you know you've got a place in my heart
And the city spires on fire, on fire
And it's like I'm walking alone in the dark
And the city's on fire, on fire, on fire
And you know you've got a place in my heart
And the city spires on fire, on fire
And it's like I'm walking alone in the dark
And the city's on fire, on fire, on fire
Whoa, whoa
When the world ends will you be holding my hand?
When the sky falls, it's you and me to the bitter end
When the buildings come crumbling down and the city burns
When the streets turn to dust, when it's all over
You're the one I want around
You're the one I want around
