Gotta keep on waiting for the morning hours

Watch them running by to where they're going

Cuz when you're upside down those nuts and bolts feel awfully strange

Are crowds of moments feeling all the same

Are you tired in the morning do you shout out loud

Gotta keep on running when you're down

Gotta get out

Gotta keep away from all those empty hands

That suck up all your love and all your cares

Best to trade it all in for those old dancing shoes

And get rid all the weight that has been holding you down

Keep your toes from tapping on the ground

We didn't know to go from here

No we didn't know to go from here

No we didn't know to go from here

Cuz it all felt wrong

So we best be moving on

You better get out

In a crowd of people looking for a spark to catch

To put back in our mouths to set a flame

Cuz I didn't know what to say to you

No I didn't know what to say to you

No I didn't know what to say to you

I was just about to pack it in

But then I heard the news you that'd be here soon

And I sang ah ah ah

You brought it back to me

You gave it back to me
