Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song Barlights , by - Fun.. Barlights |
| Never in all my life |
| Have I seen eyes as empty as |
| These streets of my city on a Saturday night |
| But the green of your eyes say go |
| Leave it all behind |
| But I don’t need to be reminded a change is gonna come |
| I can feel it on the tip of your tongue |
| And I feel alive, feel alive |
| We met up once we settled the sun |
| Between the heat and the work week |
| The fear is we could use some sleep |
| But sleep to the superfluous man means better use for beds |
| And I’ll bet I’m coming home alone tonight |
| I don’t need to be reminded that this is how it was |
| I moved on, I passed a billboard down my block |
| It asked if I had enough, and aloud I’ll say «I had too much» |
| When the truth is, I’m just getting started |
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time |
| To Mexican music it’s taunting the pavement |
| And I feel alive, I feel alive |
| I feel alive |
| One of us sings and one of us drinks |
| And one of us does nothing at all |
| So they call us all sheep |
| Well I’m the Little Bo Peep of the bunch |
| And he swears he’s gotta take this call |
| I’m scared he’s gonna leave us too soon |
| We were the get-rich-quick kids, we never got it right |
| So we settled for the center of town |
| Where all the rich white kids is out looking for a fight |
| Got the blonde one staring me down |
| And I really wanna take a swing |
| I can’t help but remember James Dean |
| See we are part of the few who agree |
| That hey, he lived life fast, but he died |
| He died, he died |
| Me, I’m gonna live forever |
| (I feel alive) |
| I think I’m gonna live forever |
| (I feel alive) |
| I know I’m gonna live forever |
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time |
| To Mexican music, it’s taunting the pavement |
| And for the first time, in a long time |
| I feel alive |
| Now all the barlights are blinking in time |
| To Mexican music, it’s taunting the pavement |
| And for the first time, in a long time |
| I feel alive |
| Now all the barlights |
| To Mexican music |
| Oh, I feel alive, I feel alive |
| And for the first time, in a long time |
| I feel alive, I feel alive |
