Lyrics
[Verse 1]
After your faith has let you down
I know you'll want to run around
And follow the crowd into the night
But after the disco, all of the shine just fade away, oh, oh-oh
Do what you want, do what you will
Don't tell me it's not our time
[Verse 2]
'Cause I'm waiting here much too long, and
Don't assume that I need your love
The chill of night has got you dancin' away and I'm
Not the dreamer or the dream you're out there lookin' for
[Verse 3]
How did I get in this winding maze of love?
And there's something wrong, and it's sending ya
Round and round till we go nowhere
[Verse 4]
I see the ashes on the ground
I know the world is burning down
And under the cold and empty moon
But after the disco, all of the shine just fade away, oh, oh-oh
Do what you want, do what you will
But you can't hide, oh, oh-oh
Do what you want, do what you will
Don't tell me it's not our time
[Verse 5]
'Cause I'm waitin' here much too long, and
Don't assume that I need your love
The chill o' night has got you dancin' away and I'm
Not the dreamer or the dream you're out there looking for
[Verse 6]
How did I get in this winding maze of love?
And there's something wrong, and it's sending ya
Round and round till we go nowhere
