[Verse 1]
I get a thrill outta playing with fire
'Cause you hold your life when you hold that flame
I get a kick outta thunder and lightning, and
Tearing through the night hollering your name

[Verse 2]
I get a laugh outta starin' at darkness
And wondering why people live in the light
I drive fast and I rumble the hardest
I don't feel alive if I ain't in the fight

[Verse 3]
I can't sleep when there's something to do
You spend your whole life dreaming and you wake up dead
It's a long night; can I spend it with you?
'Cause you're oh-so-pretty when you stand on the edge

[Chorus 1]
Oh little darlin', don't you look charming
Here in the eye of a hurricane
Real or imagined— what does it matter?
Oh, come inside; can I get you to stay?

[Chorus 2]
Oh little darlin', don't you like falling down
Through the sky like a diving plane
Real or imagined— what does it matter?
Now, come inside; can I get you to stay?

[Bridge]
What is life?
Only visions
When I die
I'm coming right on back for you
Who am I?
An illusion
Would I lie?
I'm coming right on back for you

[Chorus 1]
Oh little darlin', don't you look charming
Here in the eye of a hurricane
Real or imagined— what does it matter?
Oh, come inside; can I get you to stay?

[Chorus 3]
Oh little darlin', don't you get lonely?
Look in my eyes, gimme one more day
Real or imagined— what does it matter?
Now, come inside; can I get you to stay?
