Dangerous Business Since 1979 Songtext
"May I remind you agian, this is a dream, and in dreams, you can do anything you darn please!"
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
[x2]
Time is running, it's running on empty
And the gas is running out
I've decided tonight is the night
That I let love aside
Full speed ahead this seems to be the place
I've seen this once before
Planned perfection sought in my dreams
Hoping this would take you home
If I could become the servant of all, no lower place to fall. (I could be your servant)
If I could become the servant of all, no lower place to fall. (If I could be your servant) [My knuckles have turned to white]
If I could become the servant of all, no lower place to fall. (I could be your servant) [There's no turning back tonight kiss me on last time]
You watched me like a 10-car highway wreck with detached, vulgar curiosity
As looking down on the tops of the hats of us passersby from your seventh floor balcony
And from such a height you missed creatures too small for sight (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
Carry on, over conversation as the misguided insects (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
Crown me their grasshopper king with a dance of celebration (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
So hold on tight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your...
I will now bring new meaning to the word alone
Endless nights of dreaming of life
And the days we should have spent here
"What the matter? Something wrong?"
"Wrong? Ooh no no... everythings just... well, odd, I don't seem... I'm not even sure who I am.."
"Well, we can certainly straighten you out on that." (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
"Just who are?" (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
"I'm you're better self, you're subconscious self." (Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep)
"My? What?"
"Your better self."
It was a matter of time,
I always said I could see but now I'm going blind. (I could be your servant) [Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep]
It was a matter of time,
I always said I could see but now Im going blind. (If I could be your servant) [Drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep]
It was a matter of time,
I always said I could see but now I'm going blind. (I could be your servant)
It was a matter of miserable time but I heard somewhere,
There was a cure for useless eyes. (If I could be your servant)
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
Shut your eyes]
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
So hold on tight]
Kiss me one last time
Shut your
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
My knuckles have turned to white
There's no turning back tonight
Kiss me one last time
