I, I'm a one way motorway I'm the one that drives away Then follows you back home I, I'm a street light shining I'm a wild light blinding bright Burning off alone It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again I, I'm a new day rising I'm a brand new sky To hang the stars upon tonight I am a little divided Do I stay or run away And leave it all behind? It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again It's times like these you learn to live again It's times like these you give and give again It's times like these you learn to love again It's times like these time and time again
