Song lyrics:
Watchin’ a stretch of road,
miles of light explode.
Driftin’ off a thing I’d never done before
watchin’ a crowd roll in.
Out go the lights, it begins.
A feelin’ in my bones I never felt before…
mmm… people always told me
that bars are dark and lonely
and talk is often cheap and filled with air.
Sure, sometimes they thrill me,
but nothin’ could ever chill me
like the way they make time just disappear
feelin’ you are here again. Hot on my skin again.
Feelin’ good a thing I’d never known before.
What does it mean to feel?
Millions of dreams come real.
A feelin’ in my soul I’d never felt before… mmm…
and you always told me
no matter how long it holds me, if it falls apart
or makes us millonaires, you’ll be right here forever.
We’ll go through this thing together
and on heaven’s golden shore we’ll lay our heads.
