Lyrics (Start at 0:04):

Take me out tonight
Where there’s music and there’s people and they’re young and alive
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one
Anymore

Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I want to see lights
Driving in your car
Oh, please don’t drop me home
Because it’s not my home, it’s their home and I’m welcome no more

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought, “Oh God, my chance has come at last”
But then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn’t ask

Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care
Driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
Because I haven’t got one, oh-lee-dum
Oh, I haven’t got one

And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure, the privilege is mine

Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
