John Waite - Dark Side of the Sun lyrics

As you stood in my shadow, in some loud disguise

You were lookin' straight through me, like a piece of glass

Out of step with the fashion, fashions always pass

I've been living on the dark side of the sun

Waiting for something that would never come

Feeling restless and traded, my heartbeat paralyzed

Like some refugee hero, to beat him out every night

In some rock 'n' roll wasteland, in a thousand hours

Run with dawn and keep smiling, present them with the flowers

I've been living on the dark side of the sun

Waiting for something that would never come

And I've been running down the shadows, like a street gang to survive

Hoping for something to keep me alive

(Solo)

I looked over my shoulder, fire in my eyes

We were looking for justice, what we got was a great big surprise

We've been living on the dark side of the sun

Waiting for something that would never come

And we've been running from the shadows, like some street gang to survive

Waiting for something to keep us alive

Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh

I been living on the dark side - whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh

And I've been running from the shadows - whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh...

(to fade)
