Lyrics
Hey driver, where we going?
I swear my nerves are showing
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people, I'm the one they blame
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
"Save the darkness, let it never fade away"
Oh, the living daylights
Oh, the living daylights
All right, hold on tight now
It's down, down to the wire
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand changes, everything's the same
I've been waiting long for one of us to say
"Save the darkness, let it never fade away"
Oh, the living daylights
Oh, the living daylights
Oh, the living daylights
Get away
Comes the morning and the headlights fade away
Hundred thousand people, I'm the one they frame
Oh, the living daylights
Oh, the living daylights
Oh, the living daylights
You may run
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
Set your hopes up way too high
The living's in the way we die
