|
i need you here beside me to chase the night away |
|
i need your love to guide me safe through another day |
|
i lie and watch the lights go down |
|
say goodnight to another town |
|
and though it hurts to be alone |
|
i have my thoughts of you to keep me warm |
|
in the afterglow of your love |
|
dreaming's all i'm guilty of |
|
everyday i'm playing tough |
|
but read my mind |
|
chorus |
|
if you could see me now |
|
just living my life in a limbo |
|
if you could see me now |
|
the me that only you would know |
|
still burning in the afterglow |
|
when the beat of the drum has faded |
|
the show comes to an end |
|
the stage is cleared and loaded |
|
and the highway calls again |
|
i stand and watch the lights go down |
|
in the afterglow of your love |
|
dreaming's all i'm guilty of |
|
everyday i'm playing tough |
|
but read my mind |
|
chorus |
|
if you could see me now |
|
just living my life in a limbo |
|
if you could see me now |
|
the me that only you would know |
|
still burning in the afterglow |
|
stay with me right to the end |
|
till i can hold you again |
|
repeat chorus |
