The dreams I had are ancient history The future is a cloud of mystery The hourglass is running out of sand I'll lead you through this dark and wasted land So take me into your arms Gonna fly into the sunshine And never come back down So pretty baby, hear me now We're finally on our way Forget about tomorrow It can wait another day Run with me through my wildest dreams Gonna take the long way home Run with me, you and I will be Wherever we may roam Look into my eyes in the moonlit sky And say those words to me Live for the day, fly wild and free Living for the day that you spend alone with me Your heart was lost in sorrow But you can win tomorrow if you try You're a force of nature running through my veins When the lightning strikes, we'll never be the same So hush now, lay by my side Never mind the madness We'll put the world aside Hear me little darling Hold your head up high Step into the sunlight Don't let them see you cry Run with me through my wildest dreams Gonna take the long way home Run with me, you and I will be Wherever we may roam Look into my eyes in the moonlit sky And say those words to me Live for the day, fly wild and free Living for the day that you spend alone with me Burnt by the fire in your eyes Walking through the corners of your mind The whirlwind in your soul will never die You can be my destiny The one who writes my history Oh yeah hey So take me into your arms Gonna fly into the sunshine And never come back down So pretty baby, hear me now We're finally on our way Forget about tomorrow It can wait another day Run with me through my wildest dreams Gonna take the long way home Run with me, you and I will be Wherever we may roam Look into my eyes in the moonlit sky And say those words to me Live for the day, fly wild and free Living for the day that you spend alone with me Run with me through my wildest dreams Gonna take the long way home Run with me, you and I will be Wherever we may roam Look into my eyes in the moonlit sky And say those words to me Live for the day, fly wild and free Living for the day that you spend alone with me

Can you help me darling I can't keep myself from crying Since I walked out of your door I'm outta my head, can't take no more Life is short, a little dream One little hope and a silent scream Gotta get up, gotta get this moving Gotta let you know that it's you I'm choosing Dead man living in my dreams All the things I'll never be Sailing through this stormy weather I don't care if it takes forever Keep your eyes open when the night is falling Gonna break through when I come calling One step at a time Gonna take it slow and make you mine It's my time to shine A little bit of luck and we'll be fine yeah One step at a time Don't look back, gotta keep on flying We can walk this line Keep the lights on baby Won't stop trying yeah Where did all the time go? I'm gonna make a new tomorrow Turn this around and make you see You and I are meant to be Face the truth, work it out I'm gonna figure what it's all about The planet spins on, I'm standing still Ain't gonna hurry, got time to kill The cold nights coming, it's getting late Good things come to those who wait You're the prize worth waiting for I need your loving and a whole lot more They say truth hurts when you fall from grace I'd walk through fire just to see your face One step at a time Gonna take it slow and make you mine It's my time to shine A little bit of luck and we'll be fine yeah One step at a time Don't look back, gotta keep on flying We can walk this line Keep the lights on baby Won't stop trying yeah Coming back home to you I'll be coming back home to you Don't look down, close your eyes Take that leap to the other side Dreams come true if you want them true Don't look back, keep on straight and true Wait for me, like I wait for you Journey's end, I'll be fighting through Time to face the truth I'm coming back home to you Coming back home to you One more day Coming home to stay One step at a time Gonna take it slow and make you mine It's my time to shine A little bit of luck and we'll be fine yeah One step at a time Don't look back, gotta keep on flying We can walk this line Keep the lights on baby Won't stop trying One step at a time Gonna take it slow and make you mine It's my time to shine A little bit of luck and we'll be fine yeah One step at a time Don't look back, gotta keep on flying We can walk this line Keep the lights on baby Won't stop trying yeah Yeah, coming back home to you Oh yeah Yeah, coming back home to you

Hello again my only friend Now we're all alone so why pretend Close your eyes, embrace me, hold me close The pain subsides, no more lies Another winding road has reached the end Another hurt my aching soul must mend I can always count on you my loneliness Hello again my only friend Why does every little thing Have to be so complicated Chase a dream, make a wish, break a heart Life is what you make it Falling down is never easy When there's no-one there to lift you up But the victory tastes sweeter When the struggle is twice as tough The summers gone and the cold dark clouds come rolling in The winds of change have found me once again I'm standing on my own two feet Dust me down, I won't be beat Turn the page and make a brand new start, yeah Waiting for the rain to wash my tears away Wipe away the memories from my heart I'm standing on my own two feet Dust me down, I won't be beat Waiting for the rain to fall again, yeah Hello again my only friend Been driving down this road since god knows when Roll the dice, we'll play this game again Cold as ice, we've reached the waters edge, yeah Is it something only I can see? The paradox that burns inside of me Every day feels like the one you went away Hello again my only friend I still feel your gentle touch Upon my burning skin Your eyes, your smile, your soul Buried deep within I hear your voice echo round my head Can't take another day Gonna raise my arms Up to the sky and pray The summers gone and the cold dark clouds come rolling in The winds of change have found me once again I'm standing on my own two feet Dust me down, I won't be beat Turn the page and make a brand new start, yeah Waiting for the rain to wash my tears away Wipe away the memories from my heart I'm standing on my own two feet Dust me down, I won't be beat Waiting for the rain to fall again, yeah Waiting for the rain to wash my fears away The world I shared with you will fall apart The road is dark, the clouds are grey I'll live to love another day Turn the page and make a brand new start, yeah Hey Waiting for the rain Waiting for the rain to fall on me Waiting for the rain Waiting for the rain to fall on me Hello again my only friend Close your eyes No more lies

I never had dreams of being a wealthy man I'd spend it in a day Didn't need no suit or fancy car To carry you away Did all your dreams come true I tried my best to be the man for you But when that flame goes out We're embers on the wind So walk away The fire burned out There's nothing more to say How could we be so wrong The darkest day When the smoke clears And the years get washed away Our love kept me hanging on and on Woah oh oh Woah oh oh We're embers on the wind Scattering down these empty roads tonight We were the candle burning twice as bright Lover's dreams left dying in the rain We're embers on the wind All I ever wanted was out of reach That's the price I have to pay Can you find it in your heart to try again Or will I wait in vain Is there someone on your mind A silent thief, a shadow from behind And when his bullet strikes me down We're embers on the wind So walk away The fire burned out There's nothing more to say How could we be so wrong The darkest day When the smoke clears And the years get washed away Our love kept me hanging on and on Woah oh oh Woah oh oh We're embers on the wind Scattering down these empty roads tonight We were the candle burning twice as bright Lover's dreams left dying in the rain We're embers on the wind Lay me down and leave me in the dark Waiting here for the spark That lights our love again We're embers on the wind Embers on the wind Embers on the wind Yeah Scattering down these empty roads tonight We were the candle burning twice as bright Lover's dreams left dying in the rain We're embers on the wind Lay me down and leave me in the dark Waiting here for the spark That lights our love again We're embers on the wind Embers on the wind Embers on the wind Embers on the wind Yeah, embers on the wind Ohhhhh Lay me down and leave me in the dark Waiting here for the spark That lights our love again
