Stop banging away on my kaleidoscope

Stop draining the color out of my scene

Just play me something I can dance to

I can dance to anything you wanna sing



So lock me up in a studio

Fill it up with soundless scenarios

Stop blocking the driveway with your car

Put the butterfly in the bill jar



It's the first time that I'm worried

Of a bad dream of a journey

On the highway, through the valley

It's a long road through the night

It's a long road



There's a strangers voice in the front yard

Let the hours tick past the deadline

Get another stamp in your passport

Wash your breakfast down with some red wine



Delete the progress on your game

Try to fall asleep while your ears ring

From the loudest songs on your mixtape

I can dance to anything you wanna sing



No reason, no action

No silence, no help here

Nobody came running up by my side



It's the first time that I'm worried

Of a bad dream of a journey

On the highway, through the valley

It's a long road through the night



It's the first time that I'm worried

Of a bad dream of a journey

On the highway, through the valley

It's a long road through the night

It's a long road to get it right



It's the first time that I'm worried

Of a bad dream of a journey

On the highway, through the valley

It's a long road through the night



It's the first time that I'm worried

Of a bad dream of a journey

On the highway, through the valley

It's a long road through the night

It's a long road (to get it right)
