The Night

We’re speeding through the night like vampires
Gliding fast in the neon lights
The DJ’s great, makes me feel like dancing
Time stops as you move by my side
In the heat of the night
You shine so bright
I can see desire in your eyes
It’s 3 AM
So tell me your name
I want to do all you want me to
The lights go on as we get our jackets
A new day is about to dawn
My place or yours, it doesn’t matter
We have only tonight, and the night is young
In the heat of the night
You shine so bright
I can see desire in your eyes
It’s 3 AM
So tell me your name
I want to do all that you want me to
I like your style
Do you like mine?
I can see the fire in your eyes
It’s 3 AM
So, just tell me your name
And I’ll do all that you want me to
Oh, how she glows
In the night
Oh, how she shines
In the dark
Oh, how we glide
In the night
Oh, how we glow
In the dark…
In the heat of the night
You shine so bright
I can see desire in your eyes
It’s 3 AM
So just tell me your name
And I’ll do all that you want me to

I saw you today
You gave me an hour at your favourite café
All I wanted to say
Got lost in a meaningless conversation
Endless words
About our previous lovers
And with Lana Del Rey's
Summertime Sadness in the speakers
You wore no make up
You were so beautiful
Oh, I know this one's gonna hurt
Oh, Julia
Please don't go
Just stay an hour
And I'll tell you all
How I feel
And who I am
How we could be
Oh, we would be so good together
You and me and the last days of summer
But I'm just your friend and will be forever
Oh, I know
Who am I
A dreamer living a real life
So here I am
You've got me wrapped around your finger
You tousle my hair
And say that you really love my style
And then you laugh
'Cause Filas and crew cuts are so out of style
And your jealous lover
Why does he even bother?
I've got nothing to offer
Oh, Julia
Stay an hour
And I'll tell you about
How I can't sleep at nights
´Cause you're with him
And not with me
Why can't you see?
We would be so good together
You and me and the last days of summer
But I'm just your friend and will be forever
Oh, I know
You wear shades and a summer jacket
As we walk through old town
Just like lovers do
Oh, Julia
Stay an hour
And I'll tell you all about
How I can't sleep at nights
´Cause you're with him
And not with me
Can't you see?
We would be so good together
You and me and the last days of summer
But I'm just your friend and will be forever
Oh, I know
Julia

Neon Lights

Heroin chic is back again
Dressed in baggy clothes, quoting Morrissey
I feel stupid next to you but you don't seem to care
As we're getting high in the fog from the smoke machine
Do you believe that we will live forever?
People like us never really had a chance
So, leave your card in the bar and raise your hands
And dance, dance, dance like there's no tomorrow
And in the neon lights
We lose control
In the flashing lights
We feel home
The snow is on the table and the lines go by
´Man you took way too much this time
It's not healthy for the lungs to be coughing up blood´
But it's not healthy to exist without pulse in your life
I wanna dance, dance, dance to a techno sound
Feel the beat and your sweaty body next to mine
And around again we go my friend
Here we go, down that hole again
And in the neon lights
We lose control
In the flashing lights
We feel home
And how we shine so bright
In the neon lights
Where we live our lives
We feel home
In the neon lights
We lose control
And in the flashing lights
We feel home

Dreams

Every second counts
But seconds turn into hours
And hours turn into days
You're sleeping by my side
Silence fill the room
I can hardly hear you breathing
I want to take you in my arms
And forget about tomorrow
And all I didn't do today
Here today
There's no tomorrow
I want to stay in here with you
But dreams are made
And life is real
And dreams don't come true
In dreams I'm happy too
You take photos of me with your phone
You want me to pose with a smile
You want me to pose with a lie
And though it feels good now
I know it's only for now
But for a second I felt home
You and I will never grow old
And we will never be young again
That's the only truth I know
Here today
There's no tomorrow
I just want to stay in here with you
But dreams are made
And life is real
And dreams don't come true
And in the shade
From the lights outside
I see the tears in your eyes
'Cause dreams are made
You know it too
And dreams don't come true
I don't belong here
You don't understand me
You never could
And you never will
I don't belong here
I just don't belong here
And where I'm going
You can't come
