|
Well I woke up to the sound of silence |
|
And cries were cutting like knives in a fist fight |
|
And I found you with a bottle of wine |
|
Your head in the curtains |
|
And heart like the Fourth of July |
|
You swore and said, |
|
"We are not, |
|
We are not shining stars." |
|
This I know, |
|
I never said we are |
|
Though I've never been through hell like that |
|
I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back |
|
If you're lost and alone |
|
Or you're sinking like a stone. |
|
Carry on. |
|
May your past be the sound |
|
Of your feet upon the ground. |
|
Carry on. |
|
Carry on, carry on |
|
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night |
|
At a bar off 75. |
|
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die, |
|
All our neighbours and wives. |
|
But I like to think I can cheat it all |
|
To make up for the times I've been cheated on. |
|
And it's nice to know when I was left for dead |
|
I was found and now I don't roam these streets, |
|
I am not the ghost you are to me. |
|
If you're lost and alone |
|
Or you're sinking like a stone. |
|
Carry on. |
|
May your past be the sound |
|
Of your feet upon the ground. |
|
Carry on. |
|
Whoa! |
|
My head is on fire but my legs are fine. |
|
After all they are mine. |
|
Lay your clothes down on the floor, |
|
Close the door, hold the phone, |
|
Show me how no one's ever gonna stop us tonight. |
|
'Cause here we are |
|
We are shining stars |
|
We are invincible |
|
We are who we are |
|
On our darkest day |
|
When we're miles away |
|
Sun will come |
|
We will find our way home |
|
If you're lost and alone |
|
Or you're sinking like a stone. |
|
Carry on. |
|
May your past be the sound |
|
Of your feet upon the ground. |
|
Carry on. |
|
Oooh. |
|
Oooh. |
|
Oooh. |
|
Oooh. |
|
(No one's ever gonna stop us tonight) |
|
(No one's ever, no one's ever gonna stop, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight) |
|
(No one's ever, no one's ever gonna stop, no one's ever gonna stop, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight) |
