Engine's running hot, I'm running back to you

Caught up in your trap and the secret things you do

Headlight flashes bright, do you remember when

We used to drive all night, well I'm coming back again

You told me we live in the shadows

You told me to hide from the light

But the last thing you said keeps running through my head

Just don't take my car out tonight

Somewhere there's a place, a road without a sign

I'm standing at the gate in a dream from out of time

Your body brushes mine, I try to catch my breath

You whisper in my ear, there's danger up ahead

You told me we live in the shadows

You told me to hide from the light

But the last thing you said keeps running through my head

Just don't take my car out tonight

Headlight flashes bright, I watch you drive away

The things we always feel are the things we never say

My engine's running hot, gotta keep on pushing through

I'm burning up inside, I'm burning up for you

You told me we live in the shadows

You told me to hide from the light

But the last thing you said keeps running through my head

Just don't take my car out tonight
