The bridge that spans the gap between our souls
Continues through the night from pole to pole
And hope is like a light
That shines in endless flight
Spilling over into darkness, and making us wholly-
Free to span the oceans of our lives
Feeling only love’s emotion, suspended through the skies
And when we meet again
Remember me from when
I was crawling in the darkness, you were holding on the sky
I wanna get back to the city
Where the neon lights shine pretty
All day long
I’m giving my heart to the rock ‘n’ roll
Of the city — gonna save my soul
You are the captain, and the master of my soul
Long ago the loneliness of time
Spinning onward into emptiness with no reason and no rhyme
Said when two lovers meet
The heart begins to beat
Just like the rhythm of the street
Sad serenaders keep the time
Midnight party makers move in line
But when we meet again
Remember me from when
I was falling into darkness, and you owned the sky
I wanna get back to the city
Where the neon lights shine pretty
All day long
I’m giving my heart to the rock ‘n’ roll
Of the city — gonna save my soul
You are the captain, and the master of my soul
I wanna get back to the city
Where the neon lights shine pretty
All day long
I’m giving my heart to the rock ‘n’ roll
Of the city — gonna save my soul
You are
You are
I wanna get back
The neon lights shine pretty
All day long
I’m giving my heart to the rock ‘n’ roll
Of the city — gonna save my soul, my soul…
