Bright Light Bright Light - Lust for Life

I remember you said that I should count the moments and not waste time, so why waste mine?
If you thought that I was incidental then why'd it feel like love's young dream.
It makes no sense but nothing I can do will make a difference.
Cold hearts don't break, just take from the other.
We make our plans but nothing I can do will make a difference.
Cold hearts don't change just wait for the other
To make the same mistake twice and think they found their lust for life,
That what they've got is enough, but it's not.
So we make the same mistake three times
And think we found our lust for life when what we had is all gone.
That's what the heart does wrong.
Sing me back to sleep so I can dream that whatever happens I'll be fine.
Give me just a minute with the lights turned out so in the dark
I'll forget about how it makes no sense
That nothing I can do will make a difference.
That cold hearts don't break just take from the other.
We make our plans but nothing I can do will make a difference.
Cold hearts don't change just wait for the other
To make the same mistake twice and think they found their lust for life,
That what they've got is enough, but it's not.
So we make the same mistake three times
And think we found our lust for life when what we had is all gone.
That's what the heart does wrong.
So now I'm in the middle of the strangest dream,
I can't decide whether I'm right or if it's only me who can see the distance
That I find there in your eyes.
Falling on my feet remains the one thing I forget,
Land on my head and I'm running just as fast as these feet will go
But in the end I know
I'll make the same mistake twice,
And think I found my lust for life,
That what I've got is enough, but it's not.
So I make the same mistake three times,
Think I found my lust for life till what I had is all gone.
That's what my heart does wrong."
