A man in my shoes runs a light And all the papers lied tonight But falling over you Is the news of the day Angels fall like rain And love is all of heaven away Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade A race is on I'm on your side And hearing you my engines die I'm in a mood for you For running away Stars come down in you And love, you can't give it away Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade Don't you go It makes no sense When all your talking supermen Just take away the time And get in the way Ain't it just like rain And love, is only heaven away Inside you the time moves And she don't fade The ghost in you She don't fade Inside you the time moves And she don't fade
