We live our lives on the line
Waiting for the perfect time
What if the day never comes
And we're no better than done
We live our lives on the run
Sometimes have to jump the gun
The road to you is paved in
Somebody's intentions
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
A million dreams on the street
No one admitting defeat
Be careful what you wish for
You may end up wanting more
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
Raking me over the coals
Tearing me down for a laugh
You've gotta be pretty cold to do something like that, something that, something like that
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
Ahh ah ah ah ah
And it ain't gonna be pretty
I wouldn't want to be around
You can loose yourself in the city
If you forget about your hometown
Raking me over the coals
Tearing me down for a laugh
You've gotta be pretty cold to do something like that
Taking me for a ride
Making me hitch a ride back
You've gotta be pretty cold to do something like that, something that, something like that
Waiting for the perfect time
What if the day never comes
And we're no better than done
We live our lives on the run
Sometimes have to jump the gun
The road to you is paved in
Somebody's intentions
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
A million dreams on the street
No one admitting defeat
Be careful what you wish for
You may end up wanting more
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
Raking me over the coals
Tearing me down for a laugh
You've gotta be pretty cold to do something like that, something that, something like that
If we keep going like this somebody's gonna get burned
And the last to know will be the first to fall and they won't see it coming at all
Ahh ah ah ah ah
