Lyric

On the midnight street, restless youth collide

Lost in chaos, but I walk home with quiet stride

Too young to wither, but I can’t waste today

I know I’ve got to live it my own way

Only a few can catch their dreams for real

You and I will compromise, that’s how we feel

My mind knows it all, but deep inside I’m blind

Foolish as I am, I whisper words resigned

And chase my dreams again

By the park at one AM, that black cat waits

It moves away when I approach, like you, it hesitates

It’s too late now to stop and turn back

No more retreat, no chance to slack

Not everyone will see the next sunrise

You and I accept miracles, no disguise

My mind knows it all, but truly I don’t see

Grateful yet distant, I pray silently

And drift to sleep again

If I rush out, I’ll get hurt for sure

So I push on slowly, steady and pure

Sharpen your fangs for the day to come

Fight for your place — don’t succumb

Only a few can catch their dreams for real

You and I will compromise, that’s how we feel

I know it deep down, I know it’s true —

But still I’m foolish, lost without clue

Whispering words resigned

And chasing dreams once more
