Lyrics

Every second is a lifetime And every minute more brings you closer to God And you see nothing but the red lights You let your body burn like never before. And it feels better than love. Yeah it feels better than love. Turn away, turn away, close your eyes you can runaway. It's not enough. Another second in the sunshine, A decade in the dark taking part in a dream. Have you forgotten what she looks like? Or do you only see what you want to believe? Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love? Turn away, turn away, close your eyes you can runaway. It's not enough. I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight but they never change. So what is love? Does it feel better than love? Does it feel better than love? Turn away, turn away, close your eyes you can runaway. It's not enough. I see the lights through the rain, oh tonight but they never change. So what is love
