Crazy 8s Songtext
von mae

These lights and numbers are a bright sign
Smoke-filled casinos, but what do we know? We′ll take a chance
Looking for cheap thrills and fast rides
Spin 'til we′re dizzy, the gamble to sleep and now we dance
We stumble up and down the concrete
Led by distraction, the empty attraction keeps us blind
Never intending for the complete
Like shadows in alleyways, the unknown continues biding time

We're chasing heaven as it fades into black
Can't get it back, no, we can′t get it back
It′s like we're running crazy eights ′round the track
Can't wait to come back, can′t wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep, we're dreaming and awake, oh
And I′ll make you believe one last time
And let you feel it as my heart explodes


We sit and drink up on the cop car
Playing illegally, the boredom of fantasy, we're done
I've never ever loved you so hard
But is that reality? We can′t face the battle in the dark

We′re chasing heaven as it fades into black
Can't get it back, no, we can′t get it back
It's like we′re running crazy eights 'round the track
Can′t wait to come back, can't wait to come back

Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep, we're dreaming and awake, oh
And I′ll make you believe one last time
And let you feel it as my heart explodes
Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep, we′re dreaming and awake, oh
And I'll make you believe one last time
And let you feel it as my heart explodes


We sit, we think, and we figure
Out just right where to start
As these waters rush together
We keep ripping them apart
Is this truth? Is this real?
Is there something more to feel?
Do we chase the sensation of a blind appeal?
Have we now reached the end
Just to find the beginning again?

Stay with me tonight
We sleep, we′re dreaming and awake, oh
And I'll make you believe one last time
And let you feel it as my heart explodes
Could you stay with me tonight?
We sleep, we′re dreaming and awake, oh
And I'll make you believe one last time
And let you feel it as my heart explodes
Could you stay with me tonight?
We′re chasing heaven as it fades into black

Stay with me tonight
It's like we're running crazy eights ′round the track
Could you stay with me tonight?
We′re chasing heaven as it fades into black
And I'll make you believe one last time
It′s like we're running crazy eights ′round the track
