Astroblue Express - Midnight Drifter lyrics

When you dance with Illusions, drink with the past Small and elusive, your words never last Filling the empty, darkness and light Twined and entangled, imitations of life Echoes of silence, drifting too fast Can anyone hear me, as I fall through the cracks? All the lights are going out All the shops have closed their doors But I won't sleep tonight I won't sleep tonight Without you by my side Everybody's gone to sleep And I'm just walking the empty streets I won't sleep tonight I won't sleep tonight Without you by my side Slipping through moments, a hollow embrace Can I find lightness, when I'm so out of place Chasing shadows, in the twilight Trying to find some peace of mind Dreams for breakfast, tears for lunch I'm a queen, I'm a beggar, With a torn paper crown All the lights are going out All the shops have closed their doors But I won't sleep tonight I won't sleep tonight Without you by my side Everybody's gone to sleep And I'm just walking the empty streets I won't sleep tonight I won't sleep tonight Without you by my side
