Seize The Night

Intro: verse 1 Who would've thought it would finish like this at the back of a bus at 2:36 And you try to explain why things aren't the same you've grown up a little you haven't really changed And the song came on just before dawn you tried to catch sleep but she's run off to torment your mind And you lie there awake and unnerved and you really don't like the first verse and you're thinking about the universe Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long Cos if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong verse 2 Never knew it would take this long The same old streets, the same old songs The same wise words from old man John Where does he go now the grey horse is gone? Closed down the 12 bar last week I remember you dancing on Denmark Street Asking where we're going next Those are the days I'll always know best And they're ripping this city's heart out of it's chest Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long Cos if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong verse 3 It's just black 17 and red number 5 ten minutes to the pound four years of your life Wish I could write a letter to the past A warning to say its gonna happen so fast Johnny used to say he believed in ghosts They were the little things that he loved the most Well we never got rich and we never got famous I heard Alice got married in Vegas If you see her won't you tell her that I said goodbye And I never forgot that fateful Valentine And I never forgot the tears in her eyes Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long Cos if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong BRIDE Well if you blink then you'll miss it when the times are changing Cuz its out of fashion when its on TV Before you know it your eyes are ageing, Your telling your kids, "That used to be me" Well we got off the bus a kiss on the cheek said "Maybe I'll give you a call next week" We both know those calls will never come But as long as we're still breathing there'll be somewhere left to run Seize the night, let shadows run wild in your mind Seize the night, and do your best to lose track of time Seize the night, and the path won't feel so long Cos if you know where you are when you wake up if you know where you are when you wake up End if you know where you are when you wake up something's wrong
