lyrics

Ridin’ the wind, ridin’ the winds of change
Bird on the wing, flying from yesterday

You can never go back again, empires always end
With nothing to regret, the empire always ends

Even Steven, what ever would I say?
Even Steven OK?

They can never go back again, empires always end
With nothing to defend, the empire always ends

Even Steven, what ever would I say?
Even Steven OK?

You better believe, you better be sure
Is it what you need? Needed it more?
Follow the lead, follow the cause
Bridges are burned, the earth has been scorched

We can never go back again, empires always end
With nothing to regret, the empire always ends

Singin’ the dark, singin’ the night away
Singin’ the dark, singin’ the night away
