It's been so long I've been out of my body with you I feel alone feel at home feel like nothing is true You take me to a place where my senses gave way Turn it round shut it down what the people say Climbing up coming down gonna give you some Take my hand and let it come let it come let it Take it back when she knows that you're doing it right 'Cause everybody else knows what they're taking tonight But I just wanna play it right We we're gonna get there tonight It's been so far I've been walking the line on my own Lift me up to the stars we are coming home I know we had a chase but we're out of time We have sold in the cold physical design Set me free set me out on the run lift me up to the sun to the sun to the When you're burning down when you're burning down It's the way that you fake it I know it's too late But I just want to play it right We we're gonna get there tonight I just want to take you down We we're gonna bring you round But I just want to play it right We we're gonna get there tonight
