Holdin' on to a memory of a moment When the light drew circles around our feet You said this feels like the last time And so the taste of you is bitter sweet Outside the wind howled like a mad man Nobody wanted to be alone And on the purple edge of darkness I'll hold you forever Cause tonight we're not going home We're not going home Moving on to a dream of endless highways A nightmare of pleasure and regret Full of neon hearts and empty houses Like you and you and you And promises you would rather forget There are words that I must remember Though they still chill to the bone With a cigarette hanging from your naked lips I'll hold you forever Cause tonight we're not going home We're not going home The gift was given and the light was so bright!
