I get around despite the loss
I'm over here, you've gotta get across
Whether you like, like it or not
There is a moment meant for us
And now you've made it, but I've already played this – not interested
Open your eyes, let's get it done
Take my hand, just follow me
The shadow and me are one
...
Oh-oh, the sky is on fire
The lake has turned to a golden sun
Oh-oh, I'll never get tired
I just wanna dance
Just wanna run
...

Take my hand, just follow me
The shadow and me are one

The lake has turned to a golden sun
Oh-oh, I'll never get tired

Just wanna run
