[Verse 1]
Turn me on turn me off then you turn me back on by the weekend
And you won't say the words that I want but you flirt when you're drinkin'
I see those bubbles pop up like you're texting then they disappear
Lets cut through the shit then let's get to what we're doing here
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I want you to want me to take you back home to my mama
Put my name on your lips call me yours and forget all this drama
Your makeup is next to my toothbrush but you never put it away on the shelf
I'm asking you baby cuz I'm tired of asking myself
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we-last call kissing, are we dancing in the kitchen,
baby tell me what it is or what it isn't?
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Chorus]
Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can
Are we names in a tattoo, or just a number on a hand
Are we last call kissing or will
we be reminiscing with each other for the next forty years
Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand
[Verse 1-]

A taste of honey is worse than none at all

Oh in that case I don't want no part

I do believe that that would only break my heart
Oh, but if you feel like lovin' me

And you got the notion, I second that emotion

Said, if you feel like givin' me a lifetime of devotion
D A G D A G D

Maybe you think that love would tie you down
And you don't have the time to hand around
Or maybe you think that love was made for fools
And so it makes you wise to break the rules

Verse 1: Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7 Ebmaj7 Fmaj7
Girl I'm in love with you /
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase. /
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love /
It seems like we argue every day.
I know I misbehave and you made your mistakes and
We both still got room left to grow.
And though love sometimes hurt, I still put you first
and we'll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow.
[Chorus]
We're Just Ordinary People / We don't know which way 2 go
Cause we're Ordinary People /maybe we should take it slow.
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
Take it slow-oh oh-oh-oh /This time we'll take it slow
[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie naw /
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing every day. /
Sometimes it's heaven sent then we,
head back to hell again
We kiss, then we make up all the way.
I hang up, you call We rise and we fall
And we feel like just like walking away.
As our love advances We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy I still want you to stay...
[Chorus]
[Bridge] Bbm Db/Eb
Maybe we'll live and learn, maybe we'll crash and burn
Fmaj7
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave, maybe you'll return

Maybe another fight, maybe we won't survive
Fmaj7
Maybe we'll grow, we never know, baby you and I

No more she lives, no more serpent in her room
No more, it has killed Cleopatra, Cleopatra

They say, Oh, my God, I see the way you shine
Take your hand, my dear, and place them both in mine
You know, you stopped me dead while I was passing by
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, I see you, see you, see you every time
And oh, my I-I, I-I like your style
You, you make me, make me, make me wanna cry
And now I beg to see you dance just one more time
[Chorus]
So I say dance for me, dance for me, dance for me, oh-oh-oh
I never seen anybody do the things you do before
They say move for me, move for me, move for me, ay-ay-ay
And when you're done I'll make you do it all again
[Verse 2]
I said, oh, my God, I see you walking by
Take my hands, my dear, and look me in my eyes
Just like a monkey I've been dancing my whole life
And you just beg to see me dance just one more time

Verse 1:
You have my heart,
and we'll never be worlds apart /
Maybe in magazines,
but you'll still be my star /
Baby, 'cause in the dark /
You can't see shiny cars /
And that's when you need me there /
With you I'll always share
Chorus
When the sun shines,
we'll shine together /
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend /
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever /
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella /
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh,
Verse 2:
These fancy things
will never come in between
You're part of my entity,
here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard,
together we'll mend your heart
G
Said all I want from you

I am unwritten
Can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand, ending unplanned
[Pre-Chorus]
F D#
Staring at the blank page before you
Dm
Open up the dirty window

Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

N.C.
Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin - no one else can feel it for you

Only you can let it in

Live your life with arms wide open

Today is where your book begins

Sometimes my tries are outside the lines
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

D Dmaj7
And now, the end is near,
D7 B7
And so I face the final curtain,
Em7 Em7/D
My friend. I'll say it clear,
Em7/Db A7 D
I'll stay my case of which I'm certain.
D D7
I've lived a live that's full.
G Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
D Dmaj7
Regrets, I've had a few,
D7 B7
But then again, too few to mention.
Em7 Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
Em7/Db A7 D
And saw it thru without exemption.
D D7
I planned each charted course,
G Gm
Each careful step along the byway,
D A Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
D D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
G Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
Em A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
F# Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
Em A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
Asus4 D#maj7/D D
And did it m___...y way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.
To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it m___y way.
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!

[Verse 1]
A D
When a single mom goes out on a date with somebody new
E D A
It always winds up feeling more like a job interview
D
My momma used to wonder if she'd ever meet someone
E D A
Who wouldn't find out about me and then turn around and run
A D
I met the man I call my dad when I was 5 years old
E D A
He took my mom out to a movie and for once I got to go
D
A few months later I remember lying there in bed
E D A
I overheard him pop the question and I prayed that she'd say yes... And then
[Chorus 1]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
A D
How we went from somethings missing to a family
Bm E F#m
Looking back all I can say about all the things he did for me
A D A
Is I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
[Verse 2]
A D
I met the girl who's now my wife about three years ago
E D A
We had the perfect marriage, but we wanted something more
D
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
E D A
Crowded round the nursery window as they bring the baby in... And now
[Chorus 2]
Bm E
All of a sudden oh it seemed so strange to me
A D
How we've gone from somethings missing to a family
Bm E F#m
Looking through the glass I think about the man who's standing next to me
D E A
And I hope I'm at least half the dad that he didn't have to be
Bm A
You know he didn't have to be

They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches
You're a beast, you're a beauty
Man I think somebody dun gave Cupid a Uzi, shoot me
You're a firework, brighter in the dark
So lets turn off the lights and give me that spark
Every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine what it'd be like
Oh every time it would bring me to life
I can only imagine, only imagine
What it'd be like, what it'd be like
What it'd be like, like, like
What it'd be like, like, like
I want to let her touch me, one touch will feel free
I want to feel free, she can kiss me

I saw you from afar
Thought I'd say wassup
You can tell me your name, when we wakin' up
They call me Tunechi, I'm good, I'm Gucci
Now you can kiss your old dude goodbye, smooches

Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie

come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
skiddlee beebop a we rock a scoobie doo
and guess what america we love you
cause ya rocked and a rolled with so much soul
you could rock till you're a hundred and one years old
i dont mean to brag i don't mean to boast
but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
rock it up a baby bubbah
baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
to the beat beat, its so unique
come on everybody and dance to the beat
a hip hop
the hippie the hippie to the
hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat
i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank
he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong
well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin

VERSE I
Em
I hold on so nervously
Bm
To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me
Em
But so far, has not been good
Bm
It's been shitty
And I feel awkward, as I should
Em
This club has got to be
Bm
The most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me
Em
Well I am imagining
A
A dark lit place
G
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Em
Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
A G
I want to make you move
G
Because you're standing still
Em
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
A
You'll probably move right through
G Em
Me on my way to you
VERSE (same with 1st verse)
I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home
If one thing really means one
This club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well I'm still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Well, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
We'll, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You'll probably move right through

And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion
F#m
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
D A
There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
F#m
And when you�re staring at that phone in your lap
D A
And you hoping but them people never call you back
F#m
But that�s just how the story unfolds
D A
You get another hand soon after you fold
F#m
And when your plans unravel
D
And they sayin� what a jewish saw
A
If you had one chance
F#m
So airplane airplane sorry I�m late
D A
I�m on my way so don�t close that gate
F#m
If I don�t make that then I�ll switch my flight
D A
And I�ll be right back at it by the end of the night
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 2- BOB
F#m
Somebody take me back to the days
D A
Before this was a job, before I got paid
F#m
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
D A
Yeah back when I was tryin� to get a tip at subway
F#m
And back when I was rappin� for the hell of it
D A
But now a days we rappin� to stay relevant
I�m guessin that if we can
F#m
make some wishes outta airplanes
D A
Then maybe yo maybe I�ll go back to the days
F#m
Before the politics that we call the rap game
D A
And back when ain�t nobody listened to my mix tape
F#m
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
D A
But this is for Decatur, what�s up Bobby Ray
F#m
So can I get a wish to end the politics
D A
And get back to the music that started this shit
F#m
So here I stand and then again I say
D A
I�m hopin� we can make some wishes outta airplanes
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro- F#m--D-A- x4
BOB- I could really with this wish right now x2
Like shooting star
A Wish, A Wish right now

Intro- D G x2
D G
I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
D G
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted
Bm G
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine
D G
Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
D G
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?
Bm G
Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
Bm G
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
G
?Cause I?m not fine at all
D A
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
Bm G
I remember the make-up running down your face
D A
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Bm G
Like every single wish we ever made
D A
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
Bm G
And forget about the stupid little things
D A
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
Bm G
And the memories I never can escape
G
'Cause I'm not fine at all
D G
D G
The pictures that you sent me they?re still living in my phone
D G
I admit I like to see them, I admit I feel alone
Bm G
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around
D G
It hurts to know you?re happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on
D G
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long
Bm G
It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
Bm G
If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
G
'Cause I'm not fine at all
D A
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
Bm G
I remember the make-up running down your face
D A
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Bm G
Like every single wish we ever made
D A
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
Bm G
And forget about the stupid little things
D A
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
Bm G
And the memories I never can escape
A Bm
If today I woke up with you right beside me
G D
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
A Bm
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
G
And you'd never slip away
G
And you'd never hear me say
D A
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
Bm G
I remember the make-up running down your face
D A
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Bm G
Like every single wish we ever made
D A
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
Bm G
And forget about the stupid little things
D A
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
Bm G
And the memories I never can escape

No, I'm really not fine at all

Slow down
Never seen anything so lovely
Now turn around
And bless me with your beauty, cutie
A butterfly tattoo
Right above your navel
Your belly button's pierced too
Just like I like it girl
Come take a walk with me

The game that I kick to you

Verse 1: G | G | Am | C D
You're sweet as a honeybee, but like a honeybee stings,
You've gone and left my heart in pain.
All you left is our favorite song, The one we danced to all night long.
It used to bring sweet memories, Of a tender love that used to be.
Chorus 1: G | D | Am | D C
Now it's the same old song,
But with a different meaning, since you been gone.
It's the same old song,
But with a different meaning, since you been gone.
Verse 2: G | G | Am | C D
Sentimental fool am I,
To hear an old love song and wanna cry.
But the melody keeps haunting me,
Re-minding me, how in love we used to be.
Keep hearing the part that used to touch our hearts,
Staying to-gether forever, darling, breaking up never.
Chorus 1: G | D | Am | D C
Verse 3: G | G | Am | C D
Precious memories keep a lingering on,
Every time I hear our favorite song.
Now you've gone, left this emptiness,
I only reminisce the happiness we spent.
We used to dance to the music, (dance to the music),
Make ro-mance to the music, (make ro-mance to the music).
Chorus 3:

Got me ten feet off the ground

We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller

Because I am female I am expected to aspire to marriage
C#m D
I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important
C#m D
Now marriage can be a source of. Joy and love and mutual support
C#m D
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?
C#m D
We raise girls to each other as competitors, not for jobs or for accomplishments, which
I think can be a good thing
C#m D
But for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings, in the
way that boys are

Call you up in the middle of the night

Wrong way on a one way track

Seems like I should be getting somewhere

Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Runaway train never coming back

Runaway train tearing up the track

Runaway train burning in my veins

And now you tell me that you've fallen in love
Well I never ever thought that would be
This time you gotta take it easy
Throwing far too much emotions at me

Say you will be there

Won't you say it with me?
If you put two and two together
You will see what our friendship is four
If you can't work this equation
