Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Running wild
Till I'm faced with the dawn
[?] by illusion
Forgive me not
But remember [?]
[?]
[?] and communion
[?]

Oh sure laugh about it
To be in [?]
[?]
Cause I still want your dream
What happens happens to me
I'm taking on the chin
If love is goodbye,
So long, farewell

Running wild
I've nothing left to prove
Not where I've been
Or where I'm going
To hand in hand
[?]
They'll leave you soon
With the stars [?]
[?] concrete

Oh sure laugh about it
To be [?]
And [?]

But I still watch your dreams
What happens happens to me
In taking on the chin
If love is goodbye
So long, farewell

Still I still watch your dreams
What happens happens to me
In taking on the chin
Love is goodbye
So long, farewell
