We had all been to heaven
But no one really died
We just went and shut the crazy world outside

So we ran in the darkness
'Til the morning light arrived
And we felt ourselves so lucky to be alive

The sirens called us out on the street
The cold wind knocked us down to our knees

All the good times were stolen
All the streets just a soulin', soulin'
Like a stone, we were rollin'
On the streets, just a soulin', soulin'
Out in the night, feelin' just right again

Well, the girl was such a mystery
And the day was never done
We were anticipating what was to come

So if the talk wasn't easy
At least the feeling was so right
In the deep blue persuasiveness of the night

And if you thought of changin' your mind
Somethin' else was easy to find

All the good times were stolen
All the streets just a soulin', soulin'
Like a stone, we were rollin'
On the streets, just a soulin', soulin'
Out in the night, feelin' just right again
Yeah, yeah, yeah

So the nights kept us runnin'
While the days just kept us down
And the thought of leavin' kept us around
