Intro: - - - (x2)
Verse 1:
You can't run away forever, But there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start
You want to shut down the night, You want to shut down the sun
You want to shut away the pieces of a broken heart
Think of how we'd lay down together, We'd be listening to the radio so loud and so strong
Every golden nugget coming like a gift of the gods
Someone must have blessed us when he gave us those songs
Chorus 1:
I treasure your love, I never wanna lose it
You've been through the fires of hell, And I know you got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt, And I know you got the scars to prove it
Bridge 1:
Remember everything that I told you, And I'm telling you again that it's true
When you're alone and afraid, And you're completley amazed
To find there's nothing anybody can do, Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
Chorus 2:
There' always something magic, There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through
The beat is your's forever, The beat is always true
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through, for you
Sax Solo: - - - (x2)
Verse 2:
Once upon a time was a backbeat, Once upon a time all the chords came to life
And the angels had guitars even before they had wings
If you hold onto a chorus you can get through the night
Chorus 3:
I treasure your love, I never wanna lose it
You've been through the fires of hell, And I know you got the ashes to prove it
I treasure your love, I want to show you how to use it
You've been through a lot of pain in the dirt, And I know you got the scars to prove it
Bridge 2:
Remember everything that I told you, and I'm telling you again that it's true
You're never alone, 'cause you can put on the 'phones
And let the drummer tell your heart what to do, Keep on believing, and you'll discover baby
Chorus 3:
There' always something magic, There's always something new
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through
The beat is your's forever, The beat is always true
And when you really, really need it the most, That's when rock & roll dreams come through
Oh oooohhh, for yooooooou, yeeeeeeah yeah yeah
The beat is yours for ever, That's when rock & roll dreams come through (x4 & end however you like)
