Tell me what you're running from
Where'd you think you're gonna hide
Even if it's all gone wrong, that's just life
I've been searching for too long
Something I can't seem to find
It's getting hard to carry on with you on my mind
Wasting all my time away
Playing all the games to play
But I can't find a way to make it right
Take me down and show me how to live again
If only for the night

Make me right
If only for the night

But I've been turning down the lights

Playing all the games to play
But I can't find a way to make it right
Take me down and show me how to live again
If only for the night
Shake me up, get underneath my skin and make me right
Make me right
In the heat of the night
Give me reason to fight
In the heat of the night we'll come alive
Every man's got his price
It's an eye for an eye
Maybe just for tonight we're running blind
Take me down and show me how to live again
If only for the night
Shake me up, get underneath my skin and make me right
Make me right
If only for the night
If only for the night
If only for the night
