A breathless drive through a downtown street
A motorcycle ride in the midday heat
The dust that hung from the desert skies
Run though we'd run, it still burned our eyes
Oh yeah we may walk
On the wild wild side of life
In our memories chased by a stranger
Close by your side
Empty shadows of a promise
You can take my hand
Show me a way to understand
(Chorus 1)
So if you think you know how to love me
And you think you know what I need
And if you really really want me to stay
You've got to lead the way
(Chorus 2)
Yeah if you think you know how to love me
And you think you can stand by me
And if you really really want me stay
You've got to lead the way
A reckless night in a nameless town
Then we moved out of sight with a silent sound
A beach that wept with the shore that waves
That's where we slept known' we'd be safe
Now you may think you can walk
On the wild wild side with me
But there's a lot I can learn
And a lot I have yet to see
You know you've got my life
Lyin' in your hands
And it's up to you to make me understand
(Repeat Chorus 1)
(Repeat Chorus 2 twice)
(Repeat Chorus 1)
(Repeat Chorus 2)
