Crazy 8s

These lights and numbers are a bright sign

Smoke-filled casinos, but what do we know we'll take a chance

Looking for cheap thrills and fast rides

Spin till we're dizzy, the gamble, the sleep and now we dance

We stumble up and down the concrete

Led by distraction, the empty attraction keeps us blind

Never intending for the complete

Like shadows and alleyways, the unknown continues biding time

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black

Can't get it back, no, we can't get it back

It's like we're running crazy 8s 'round the track

Can't wait to come back, can't wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?

We sleep for dreaming and away it goes

And I'll make you believe one last time

And let you feel it as my heart explodes

We sit and drink up on the cop car

Playing illegally, the boredom of fantasy, we're done

I've never, ever loved you so hard, but is that reality

We can't face the battle in the dark

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black

Can't get it back, no, we can't get it back

It's like we're running crazy 8s 'round the track

Can't wait to come back, can't wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?

We sleep for dreaming and away it goes

And I'll make you believe one last time

And let you feel it as my heart explodes

Could you stay with me tonight?

We sleep for dreaming and away it goes

And I'll make you believe one last time

And let you feel it as my heart explodes

We sit, we think, and we figure out just right where to start

As these waters rush together, we keep ripping them apart

Is this truth? Is this real? Is there something more to feel?

Do we chase the sensation of lying uphill?

Have we now reached the end...just to find the beginning again?

Stay with me tonight

We sleep for dreaming and away it goes

And I'll make you believe one last time

And let you feel it as my heart explodes

Could you stay with me tonight?

We sleep for dreaming and away it goes

And I'll make you believe one last time

And let you feel it as my heart explodes

Could you stay with me tonight?

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black

Stay with me tonight

It's like we're running crazy 8s 'round the track

Could you stay with me tonight?

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black

And I'll make you believe one last time

It's like we're running crazy 8s 'round the track
