Running Lights Songtext
von Sonata Arctica

The sunset will make the night
He fills the road with the headlights
He′s one of the wilder kind
In his yellow and red skyline

Young man and his fast car
Squeezing the wheel
Knuckles white
Speeding, turning, sliding, drifting
Deeper in his bucket seat
Running all the lights with the girl of his dreams

And they enter the night when
The young ones need no sleep
Laughing at the lights they keep running
Becoming color of the night
When the song on the
Radio sings, "Such a perfect day."
Tomorrow slowly fades away


The world only ends once in one life time
These nights of the young last forever
Around and around, with the clearing smoke
These days drift away altogether

The peak of the perfect skies, the sunrise always ruins the night
Racing for one final kiss
Drifting away... don't touch the wheel!
Turn left, slide right, Initial G-feel
Deeper in the redline
Screaming louder underneath

And they enter the night when
The young ones need no sleep
Laughing at the lights they keep running
Becoming color of the night
When the song on the
Radio sings, "Such a perfect day."
Tomorrow slowly fades away

The world only ends once in one life time
These nights of the young last forever
Around and around, with the clearing smoke
These days drift away altogether


Once in a while night′s a full lifetime
These nights of the young last forever
Around and around, with the clearing smoke
These days drift away in the shades of time
