Love me tender, love me true
Ooh baby, what a song could do
We were sharp like needles in the dark
No question markMy friend Billy was one of a kind
Growin' up and runnin' wild
We could take a sunset and make it real
We stood together on the edge of a knife
[Unverified] to be friends, brothers for lifeAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one dayUsed to say, well, it's me and you
Ooh, we could make dreams come true
And we put some magic in this night
Oh, feels so rightCame across your photograph
Everything was just a laugh
Where do you go when you reach the end?
Into the night, we would explode
With hand on my heart, rules of the roadAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one dayAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one dayBig city lights they fade then they go
(Along with your sense of humor, no)
Some people give up and lose the fight
We could prove it night after, night afterAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one dayAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one dayAnd we have seen the night run
It's a thousand miles away
Yes, we have seen the night run
It passed us by in just one day
