  • Why? (Got that?)
    Who, me? (Louder)
    Why? (Got that?)

    Feet don't fail me now
    Take me to the finish line
    Oh, my heart it breaks every step that I take
    But I'm hoping that the gates, they'll tell me that you're mine
    Walking through the city streets
    Is it by mistake or design?
    I feel so alone on the Friday nights
    Can you make it feel like home if I tell you you're mine?
    It's like I told you, honey (louder)

    Don't make me sad, don't make me cry
    Sometimes love is not enough
    And the road gets tough, I don't know why
    Keep making me laugh
    Let's go get high
    The road is long, we carry on
    Try to have fun in the meantime

    Come and take a walk on the wild side
    Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
    You like your girls insane, so (louder)
    Choose your last words, this is the last time
    'Cause you and I, we were born to die

    Lost but now I am found
    I can see that once I was blind
    I was so confused as a little child
    Tryna take what I could get
    Scared that I couldn't find
    All the answers, honey (louder)

    Don't make me sad, don't make me cry
    Sometimes love is not enough
    And the road gets tough, I don't know why
    Keep making me laugh
    Let's go get high
    The road is long, we carry on
    Try to have fun in the meantime

    Come and take a walk on the wild side
    Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
    You like your girls insane, so (louder)
    Choose your last words, this is the last time
    'Cause you and I, we were born to die

    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    We were born to die
    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    We were born to die

    Come and take a walk on the wild side
    Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
    You like your girls insane

    So, don't make me sad, don't make me cry
    Sometimes love is not enough
    And the road gets tough, I don't know why
    Keep making me laugh
    Let's go get high
    The road is long, we carry on
    Try to have fun in the meantime

    Come and take a walk on the wild side
    Let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain
    You like your girls insane, so (louder)
    Choose your last words, this is the last time
    'Cause you and I, we were born to die

    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    We were born to die
    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    We were born to die

    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    Why? (Got that?)
    Who, me? (Louder)
    (We were born to die, we were born to die, we were born to die)
    Why? (Got that?)

    (We were born to die)
    (Louder)
    (Got that?)
