Hold me now

It was the shot heard around the world
The black fur coat on the common girl
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down

And then the gang rolled into town
Just like a scene from a 1950s movie
Ashes to ashes, we all fall down

There's no life in this city
When you're not with me
There's no life in this city
When you're not with me

Hold me now for a second
Don't let me go
Hold me now for a second
Don't let me go home
Hold me now for a second

I wandered in the void tonight
Like a desert star in a lonely winter
Fading out softly like suburban light

And love is all that we have right now
It keeps me going like a generator
Lost in the moment, lost in the lights

Hold me now for a second
Don't let me go
Hold me now for a second
Don't let me go home
Hold me now for a second

There's no life in this city
When you're not with me.
There's no life in this city
When you're not with me.
