Meat Loaf - Nowhere Fast lyrics

It`s getting cold, it`s getting dark,

the nights are longer every day

The air is heavy and the clouds

will never burn away

And we`ve been waitin` here so

long that we`ve forgotten what it`s like

To turn into the fire, lookin` straight into the,

straight into the light

Bridge:

Your heart is tryin` to rock but it can barely beat at all

Your soul is tryin` to run but all your body does is crawl

You don`t need any signal, you don`t need any sign

Nothin`s gonna stop you once you cross over the line

I wanna tear it all apart and take the clothes right off your back

We`re tearin` down the highway and we`re breakin` away, breakin` away

Breakin` away, we`re breakin` away from the pack

We`re breakin` away from the pack

And if you don`t have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you`re ready to roll

And even if you don`t have anywhere to go

You go down on the pedal and you`re ready to roll

And your speed is all you`ll ever need, all you`ll ever need to know

Chorus:

You and me we`re goin` nowhere slowly and we gotta get away from the past

There`s nothin` wrong with goin` nowhere baby

But we should be goin` nowhere fast

Everybody`s goin` nowhere slowly

They`re only fighting for the chance to be last

There`s nothin` wrong with goin` nowhere baby

But we should be goin` nowhere fast

It`s so much better goin` nowhere fast

You shouldn`t always see your world so clearly

You shouldn`t always know your place so well

And all we`re doin` here is hangin` around

And goin` anywhere has gotta be heaven, `cos stayin here is gonna be hell

And goin` anywhere has gotta be heaven, `cos stayin here has gotta be hell

I`m getting lost, I`m getting found,

I`m getting born again each day

We`re dyin` on the vine until we finally,

`til we finally get away

The boundaries of this town are closin` in just like a noose

The future`s gonna rust if we don`t put it to some, put it to some use

(bridge)

(chorus repeats out)
