ELO
"Nightrider"
I remember somewhere in the rain
The faces of the passers-by,
Staring faces broken blinds.
I recall the situation clearly
Standing in a crowded car;
I can feel the need in me.
Hold on, nightrider baby,
Hold on, you're a nightrider...
Riding the night, searching for what is gone,
Never reaching the end, so you must travel on.
I still see that vision of delight
While cruising on the black of night,
But she keeps a step ahead.
Looking out the corner of her world,
Nobody ever knows a girl
Who once lived along this way.
Hold on, nightrider baby,
Hold on, you're a nightrider...
Riding the night, searching for what is gone,
Never reaching the end, so you must travel on.
Desolation degradation row,
Go on; don't let the feeling show,
She's a ten a penny dream.
Faces with no name and no address
Keep staring in on my distress,
But she kills me with her smile.
Hold on, nightrider baby,
Hold on, you're a nightrider...
Riding the night, searching for what is gone,
Never reaching the end, so you must travel on.
