Inside everyone hides one desire Outside no one would know Danger close to edge of the knife Safer not to let go And while we miss chances You can almost hear time slipping away
chorus We close our eyes we never lose a game Imagination never lets us take the blame We close our eyes to see the final frame We close our eyes to time slipping away
No show Wednesday girl waits with the wine She knows just what to say While no one listens You can almost hear time slipping away
repeat chorus
We can talk to strangers We are burning with the spark And we can walk on water We are tigers in the dark We are burning
We close our eyes
Heroes never give into the night He knows how far he can run And as he surrenders You can almost hear time slipping away
