There's a rhythm and rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreamsIn a world gone shallowIn a world gone lean
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know
The gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow
There's no place to run and no gasoline
Engine won't turn and the train won't leave
Engines won't turn and the train won't leave
I will stay with you tonightHold you close 'til the morning lightIn the morning watch a new day rise
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
Well the way I fell is the way I writeIt isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies
There is a truth and it's on our side
Dawn is coming
Open your eyesLook into the sun as the new days rise
And I will wait for you tonight
You're here forever and you're by my sideI've been waiting all my life
To feel your heart as it's keeping time
We'll do whatever just to stay alive
