YOU CAME DOWN
|
A TWISTED UP ROAD
|
YOU'VE BEEN TRAVELING
|
FOR LIGHT YEARS
|
|
YOU GOT HERE THE SAME TIME
|
|
THOSE TEARS FOUND THEIR WAY
|
|
DOWN YOUR FACE
|
I FOUGHT WITH THE LAWS TOOTH AND NAIL
|
AND I TRAVELED BY NIGHT, DEAR
|
|
YOU'RE A SIGHT FOR SORE EYES I'VE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER THE PLACE
|
|
UP WHERE THE ANGELS SIGH
|
DOWN WHERE THE DREAMS GET SMASHED ON THE ROCKS
|
YOU AND I
|
|
WAIT TO BEGIN AGAIN
|
LIFTED ABOVE BY A LOVE
|
THAT DOES NOT END
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I'M ALRIGHT TONIGHT
|
I'M ALRIGHT
|
|
YOU'RE ALRIGHT TONIGHT
|
YOU'RE ALRIGHT
|
|
WE'RE ALRIGHT TONIGHT
|
IT'S ALRIGHT TONIGHT
|
|
YOU PICKED UP SOME PIECES OF LIGHT
|
AS YOU BROKE THROUGH THE SPEED OF SOUND
|
|
I WAS ROCKIN' AROUND IN MY OWN TWO-DIMENSIONAL WAY
|
|
NOW WHEN I HEAR THAT JET ENGINE BLOW
|
THEN I KNOW YOU ARE LEAVING TOWN
|
|
BABY, I'D FOLLOW YOU TO THE EDGE OF IT ALL, ANYWAY
|
|
UP WHERE THE KINGDOM COMES
|
DOWN WHERE THE STREETS TAKE THE BREATH OF ANOTHER YOUNG GUN
|
LOVE IS A WHISPERED PRAYER
|
SHOT LIKE A SPARK THROUGH THE HEART
|
OF DARK DESPAIR
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I DON'T REGRET ANY NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD INDISCRETIONS
|
I CAN STILL FIT BOTH MY FEET IN MY MOUTH, ANYWAY
|
BUT THESE DAYS I'M JUST NOT AS WILLING TO NURSE THE OBSESSION
|
(NO NO NO)
|
|
IF THE DOC SAYS IT'S GOT TO COME OUT
|
THEN I'M HAPPY TO PAY
|
|
[Chorus x2]
|
