that won't come true I'd leave it all for you brick walls are closing in let's make a run tonight blinded by the lights hold you through forever Won't let you go cause if you jump I will jump too we will fall together from the building's ledge never looking back at what we've done we'll say it was love cause I would die for you on skyway avenue she said don't change your mind let's leave this town behind we'll race right off the cliff they will remember this it all got so mundane with you I'm back again just take me by the hand we're close to the edge blinded by the lights hold you through forever never let you go cause if you jump I will jump too we will fall together from the building's ledge never looking back at what we've done we'll say it was love cause I would die for you on skyway avenue where are your guts to fly soaring through, through the night and if you take that last step I'll follow you leave the edge and fly we're finally alive cause if you jump I will jump too we will fall together from the building's ledge never looking back at what we've done we'll say it was love cause I would die for you on skyway avenue so what's left to prove we have made it through
