1985 From the day you've been alive Love you more than any time before See it in your eyes What if we never make it back? To die by your side is the way I would go So I hope you're gonna call me back Cos you got to know Yeah, you got to know 1985 Strive and stride in style Prettiest girl in the whole wide world And I know she's mine And she knows my mind What if we never make it back? To die by your side is the way I would go So I hope you're gonna call me back Yeah, you should know Yeah, you should know 1985 From the day you've been alive Love you more than any time before See it in my eyes?

I feel down again Went down the wrong end Wages for A life of sin Keep it on the road, baby We're starting to drift I know that maybe you got yer doubts About me, about you What an awful day When we walk away Tell me to stay And I'll lay it down There's still light in this grey Don't go down again Who loses when they win? Lottery winners and me! Keep it on the road, baby Steady as we go through this fog We both know it's wrong To be away too long What an awful day When I felt like I couldn't stay Tell me there's another way And we'll lay it all down Lay it all down, yeah (There's still love in this different pain, You got to know that we're just the same, Singing to you from a higher plane) All I know from everything (All I know from everything) All I know from everything (All I know from everything).

Sometimes all it amounts to in the end A non-stop rollercoaster ride around the bend While you try to hang on desperately To the things you won at the booth They fly out your hand as you spin out of control And in that? We all find some sort of truth. Not afraid of the heights I fall Afraid I won't ever hit the ground at all Wonder if I make a sound? I wonder if it makes a sound I wonder When nobody's around? Mister, my soul? Pound for pound Burning like a funeral pyre Walking with my hands on a wire Walking with my hands on a wire
