Lyrics
I
I'll be your light, your match, your burning sun
I'll be the bright, in black, that's making you run
And I feel alright, and we'll feel alright
Because we'll work it out, yeah we'll work it out
Now I'll be doing this, if you ever doubt
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
I'll be your ghost, your game, your stadium
I'll be your fifty thousand clapping like one
And I feel alright, and I feel alright
Because I worked it out, yeah I worked it out
I'll be doing this, if you ever doubt
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
I got my mind made up and I can't let go
I'm killing every second till it saves my soul
I'll be running, I'll be running
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
And we'll start a fire, and we'll shut it down
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
There's a maniac out in front of me
Got an angel on my shoulder and Mephistopheles
My momma raised me good, momma raised me right
Momma said "do what you want and say prayers at night"
And I'm saying them, because I'm so devout
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
I got my mind made up and I can't let go
I'm killing every second till it saves my soul
I'll be running, I'll be running
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
And we'll start a fire, and we'll shut it down
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
Oh, we all want the same thing
Oh, we all run for something
Oh, for God, for fate, for love, for hate
For gold, and rust, for diamonds, and dust
I'll be your light, your match, your burning sun
I'll be the bright, in black, that's making you run
I got my mind made up and I can't let go
I'm killing every second till it saves my soul
I'll be running, I'll be running
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
And we'll start a fire, and we'll shut it down
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
I'll be your light, your match, your burning sun
I'll be the bright, in black, that's making you run
And I feel alright, and we'll feel alright
Because we'll work it out, yes we'll work it out
And we'll start a fire, and we'll shut it down
Till the love runs out, till the love runs out
Till the love runs out

Ser tu luz, tu cerilla, tu ardiente sol,


ser el brillo, en la oscuridad, que est hacindote correr.
y me siento bien, y nos sentiremos bien,
porque lo resolveremos, s, lo resolveremos,
ahora, estar haciendo esto, por si alguna vez lo dudaste,
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor.
Ser tu fantasma, tu juego, tu estadio,
ser tus cincuenta mil aplausos en uno solo.
Y me siento bien, y me siento bien,
porque lo resolv, s, lo resolv,
estar haciendo esto, por si alguna vez lo dudaste,
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor.
Estoy convencido y no puedo dejarlo pasar,
estoy matando cada segundo hasta que salve mi alma,
estar corriendo, estar corriendo
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor,
y empezaremos un fuego, y lo apagaremos
hasta que el amor se agote, hasta que se agote el amor.
Hay un manaco justo delante de m,
tengo un ngel sobre mi hombro, y a Mefistteles.
Mi mam me cri bien, mam me cri de forma correcta,
mam dijo "haz lo que quieras, y reza por las noches".
Y yo estoy rezando, porque soy muy devoto,
hasta que el amor se agote, hasta que se agote el amor.
Estoy convencido y no puedo dejarlo pasar,
estoy matando cada segundo hasta que salve mi alma,
estar corriendo, estar corriendo
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor,
y empezaremos un fuego, y lo apagaremos
hasta que el amor se agote, hasta que se agote el amor.
Oh, todos queremos lo mismo,
oh, todos corremos por algo,
oh, por Dios, por el destino, por amor, por odio,
por oro, por herrumbre, por diamantes, y polvo.
Ser tu luz, tu cerilla, tu ardiente sol,
ser el brillo, en la oscuridad, que est hacindote correr.
Estoy convencido y no puedo dejarlo pasar,
estoy matando cada segundo hasta que salve mi alma,
estar corriendo, estar corriendo
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor,
y empezaremos un fuego, y lo apagaremos
hasta que el amor se agote, hasta que se agote el amor.
Ser tu luz, tu cerilla, tu ardiente sol,
ser el brillo, en la oscuridad, que est hacindote correr.
y me siento bien, y nos sentiremos bien,
porque lo resolveremos, s, lo resolveremos,
ahora, estar haciendo esto, por si alguna vez lo dudaste,
hasta que se agote el amor, hasta que se agote el amor,
hasta que se agote el amor.
