Bat out of Hell
Meat Loaf
The sirens are screaming, and the fires are howling Way down in the valley tonight There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye And a blade shining oh so bright There's evil in the air and there's thunder in the sky, And a killer's on the bloodshot streets And down in the tunnels where the deadly are rising Oh, I swear I saw a young boy down in the gutter He was starting to foam in the heat Oh, baby you're the only thing in this whole world That's pure and good and right And wherever you are and wherever you go There's always gonna be some light, But I gotta get out, I gotta break out now Before the final crack of dawn So we gotta make the most of our one night together When it's over, you know, We'll both be so alone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes When the night is over, like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone, gone, gone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes But when the day is done And the sun goes down And the moonlight's shining through Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven I'll come crawling on back to you I'm gonna hit the highway like a battering ram On a silver-black phantom bike When the metal is hot, and the engine is hungry And we're all about to see the light Nothing ever grows in this rotting old hole, And everything is stunted and lost And nothing really rocks, and nothing really rolls, And nothing's ever worth the cost Well I know that I'm damned if I never get out, And maybe I'm damned if I do, But with every other beat I've got left in my heart, You know I want to be damned with you If I gotta be damned, you know I want to be damned Dancing through the night with you/ Well if I gotta be damned, you know I want to be damned, Gotta be damned, you know I want to be damned Gotta be damned, you know I want to be damned Dancing through the night, Dancing through the night, Dancing through the night with you Oh, baby you're the only thing in this whole world That's pure and good and right And wherever you are and wherever you go There's always gonna be some light, But I gotta get out, I gotta break out now Before the final crack of dawn So we gotta make the most of our one night together When it's over, you know, We'll both be so alone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes When the night is over, like a bat out of hell, I'll be gone, gone, gone Like a bat out of hell I'll be gone when the morning comes But when the day is done And the sun goes down And the moonlight's shining through Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven I'll come crawling on back to you Then like a sinner before the gates of Heaven I'll come crawling on back to you Well I can see myself tearing up the road, faster Than any other boy has ever gone And my skin is raw, but my soul is ripe, And no one's gonna stop me now, I'm gonna make my escape But I can't stop thinking of you, And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late And I never see the sudden curve until it's way too late Then I'm down in the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun, Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike, And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell And the last thing I see is my heart, still beating, Breaking out of my body and flying away Like a bat out of hell Then I'm down in the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun, Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike, And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell And the last thing I see is my heart, Still beating still beating Still beating still beating Breaking out of my body, and flying away Like a bat out of hell Oh, like a bat out of hell Oh, like a bat out of hell Oh, like a bat out of hell (I'll be gone when the morning comes) Oh, like a bat out of hell (I'll be gone when the morning comes) Oh, like a bat out of hell
