Once I took a woman
Chained her to my soul
She did her best to please me
Thought I had control
Neon lights and dancing
Midnight on the town
Fever took our love
Passion got too great
I want her back, but now it's much too late

I'm running, running away from a memory
Asking the stars to forgive me
The nights keep calling her name
Running, twisting and turning
Through back streets
Haunting the bars where we would meet
The songs keep me calling her name

I'm looking for a feeling
I'm looking for a light
Searching for the answer
Somewhere in the night
Every lonely loser
Hustling down the street
Shakes me to the bone
Makes me want to cry
I'm on my own and damned if I know why

I'm running, running away from a memory
Asking the stars to forgive me
The nights keep calling her name
Running, twisting and turning
Through back streets
Haunting the bars where we would meet
The songs keep me calling her name
