lyrics

(Verse 1.)
Meeting you tonight
A rare kind of thrill
Dancing in the distance
With no care in the world
The players tried their best lines
The hyenas with their looks could kill
We’re synchronised and sacred
And I still think about it
Nothing stood between us
Nothing ever will
(Pre-Chorus)
She said come with me
Let’s paint the old town red
You make it so easy
To let loose of myself
(Chorus.)
I feel like I’ve found a place
In Babylon... (In Babylon...)
This must be how heaven tastes
In Babylon... (It’s Babylon...) with you

(Verse 2.)
Got a lust for life
No limitation here
I’ve said so many times
How you’ve silenced my fears
I’ll lay awake and guard you
Until Kingdom come
Adrenalised and blessed
I’m giving you my best
Nothing stands between us
And nothing ever will

(Pre-Chorus.)
She said come with me
Let’s paint the old town red
You make it so easy
To let loose of myself

(Chorus.)
I feel like I’ve found a place
In Babylon... (In Babylon...)
This must be how heaven tastes
In Babylon... (It’s Babylon...) with you
