I try to know when to leave
She sits in the bedroom and grieves
There's a sequence that starts all again
She can't get up anymore with the pain
The combination of these drugs
Has left her hopeless and lost
She wants to count the ways
But she can't count again
[Chorus:]
I will be right here
'Til all the pain
Just disappear
I will always stay
'Til all this light
Just kills the day
I strangle my words
Once, I tried a thousand times
Slaughtered like Gods
When the silver shines so hard
I tried to poison my life
Always dreaming of the edge of the knife
She always looked backwards
And I can sit here for even ten minutes or more
Heaven
A gateway to hope
Just like a feeling
I need, it's no joke
And though it hurts me
To see you this way
They traded by words
I'd never heard
To hard to say them
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home
[2x]
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Each way I turn
I know I'll always try
To break the circle
That has been placed round me
From time to time
I find our lost
Semeaning
That was urgent
To myself
I don't believe
Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home
[2x]
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
Oh it's the last time, it's the last time
And I have never met anyone quite like you before
And I've never met anyone quite like you before
[2x]
And I've never met anyone quite like you before
Oh, up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I walk alone, to find my soul desire to go home
And I never met anyone quite like you before
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I walk alone, to find my soul desire to go home
Up, down, turn around; please don't let me hit the ground
Tonight I think I walk alone to find my soul desire to go home
[2x]
see myself in the pouring home
see the light come over now
see myself in the pouring rain
i watch hope come over me
yeah, yeah
here we are now, going to the east side
i pick up my friends and we start to ride
ride all night, we ride all day
some may come and some may stay
here we are in the pouring home
i watch the light man fall the comb
i watch a light move across the screen
i watch the light come over me
yeah, yeah
here we are now going to the west side
weapons in hand as we go for a ride
some may come and some may stay
watching out for a sunny day
where there's love and darkness and my sidearm
hey, elan
here we are now going to the north side
i look at my friends as they start to ride
ride at night we ride all day
looking out for a sunny day
here we are now going to the south side
i pick up my friends and we hope we won't die
ride at night, ride through heaven and hell
come back and feel so well.
Baby when I met you there was peace unknown
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside
There was something going on
You do something to me that I can't explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got something going on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel needs no conversation
We can ride it together, ah ha
Making love with each other, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
I can't live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothing when you got no one
And you walk in the night
Slowly losing sight of the real thing
But that won't happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year for the real thing
No more will you cry
Baby I will hurt you never
We start and end as one
In love forever
We can ride it together, ah ha
Making love with each other, ah ha
Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in between
How can we be wrong
Sail away with me
To another world
And we rely on each other, ah ha
From one lover to another, ah ha
