Hey driver, where're we going?

I swear my nerves are showing

Set your hopes up way too high

The living's in the way we die

Comes the morning and the headlights fade away

Hundred thousand people... I'm the one they frame

I've been waiting long for one of us to say

Save the darkness, let it never fade away

Oh in the living daylights

Oh in the living daylights

(In the living daylights)

All right, hold on tight now

It's down, down to the wire

Set your hopes up way too high

The living's in the way we die

Comes the morning and the headlights fade away

Hundred thousand changes... Everything's the same

I've been waiting long for one of us to say

Save the darkness, let it never fade away

Oh in the living daylights

Oh in the living daylights

(In the living daylights)

Oh in the living daylights

(In the living daylights)

Comes the morning and the headlights fade away

Hundred thousand people

I'm the one they frame

Oh in the living daylights

Oh in the living daylights

(In the living daylights)

Set your hopes up way too high

The living's in the way we die

Set your hopes up way too high

The living's in the way we die
