Lyrics
Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes


We'll drive until the sunlight fades

And the stars say hello

I'll point out names of constellations

That I don't really know


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


I don't need directions babe

Don't matter where we go

Just give me an old and lonely highway

A good song on the radio


They say you don't know what you got

Until it goes away

So let's just memorize this moment

I don't wanna let it fade


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


Cause we're not getting any younger

So honey just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes

Lane Norberg - Lose The Light

Breathe

He came when you were weak
you had such bad conscience
It was a little too soon
but you weren't ready to regret

It was sincere and secure
different and precise
You remembered the smile
remembered the clothes
remembered every single feeling
Remembered the rhythm of the heartbeat

Your mind is heavy 
and you’re ready 
to do anything
to feel safe again
and to share your thoughts
And even if too soon
you finally felt something
You remembered the smile
remembered the clothes
remembered every single feeling
Remembered the rhythm of the heartbeat

And as you get up
remember to breathe
This won't make your world collapse 
after all
Even when the mornings weigh more 
than your head can bear
You're still there 
and breathe the same air

And as you get up
remember to breathe
This won't make your world collapse 
after all
Even when the mornings weigh more 
than your head can bear
You're still there 
and breathe the same air

This won't make your world collapse 
after all

Verse 1:
You always start a show
And I fall asleep
You like to hog the bed
While I steal the sheets
The kitchen light is on
But we forgot to eat
It’s alright
It’s alright

We’re always making plans
Then we change our minds
I forget the date
You forget the time
But somehow babe
It all works out fine
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Verse 2:
Sitting on the porch
Strumming my guitar
While you paint the house
Splashing on the car
We don’t have a clue
Who the neighbors are
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say everything’s alright

Verse 3:
You call me on the phone
I don’t answer
I never can remember
The password
You never let me get in
The last word
It’s alright
It’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Chorus 2:
Cause you say come and hold me tight
And you say it just feels so right
And you say it’s a lovely life
And you say everything’s alright

Chorus 1:
Cause when it’s all been said and done
Take the doggies on the run
Together we have so much fun
Before the party has begun

Before The Party Has Begun

I hate being so cynical
I hate feeling so
Cautious and jaded and scared

What has made us this way?
Who has led us so far astray?
Surely this can’t be
All we can be

Can we undo it all?
Lay down the armor
Of smooth and easy insincerity

Oh, how good would that be?  

I hate being so hard
I hate going through motions
And feeling so dead inside

Sometimes this isolation is crushing me
And it’s hard to figure out how I should be
How I can be
Different

Can we undo it all
With openness, courage and love?
Can I reach out to you?
And you to me?

Oh, how good would that be?

Different

Knowing you the way I do, I'm gonna bring a song to sing tonight.
If we let it, we can get it going strong, sing that song just right,
I’ll take high, and you take low, we can start it slow and build the chorus.

This is just another opportunity for you and me to sing.
That alone has made the journey worth our time, so we climb aboard.
So when the chorus comes around, I believe we’ve found another chance to

Sing in harmony; we sing all the time.
We just have to sing, even when the words don’t rhyme.
Sure, we know it can’t last forever, but there’s still a song.
Sing in harmony, how can that be wrong?
Jump in the boat and grab a note and sing along, sing a song with me.
Listen closely to the notes we sing so clear, can you hear it now?
We’ll be singing all night long, all our fav’rite songs, don't’ miss the chance to

Sing in harmony; we sing all the time.
We just have to sing, even when the words don’t rhyme.
Sure, we know it can’t last forever, but there’s still a song.
Sing in harmony, how can that be wrong?

The music’s never wrong, come on and sing along.
One more song with you.

Sing in harmony; we sing all the time.
We just have to sing, even when the words don’t rhyme.
Sure, we know it can’t last forever, but there’s still a song.
Sing in harmony, how can that be wrong?

In harmony; sing just like the birds.
You can hum along if you don’t know the words.
Guess we know it won’t last forever, so let’s sing this song.
Sing in harmony, how can that be wrong?
