Hi, do you see that orange pub?
Would you like to go there?
Ah, this is not bad, oh
Ah yeah, It’s not bad, oh
Sure, only a drink, well, maybe two
Just to laugh our heads off
Ah, ’till we go mad, oh
Ah, ’till we go mad and
If you want to stay awake
I will lead you here by my side
If you are tired of just being friends
Tell me so, you don’t have to say it twice
If you want to stay awake
I’ll be your wonderful night
If you swear you will never let me down
Each joke we tell is a little lie
'Cause you have to try me
How can I tell you that?
How can I tell you that?
Free, won’t you live my love and set me free?
'Cause I’m deeply rolling
I think I’ve gone mad, yeah
I think I’ve gone mad, yeah
If you want to stay awake
I will lead you here by my side
If you are as tired of this as I am
Tell me so, you don’t have to say it twice
If you want to stay awake
I’ll be your damn crazy night
If you promise you will go crazy about me
Hi, you can’t always go on your own
You can’t always do that
I’m going mad, I know
I’m going mad to make you know
Yeah it’s easier said than done
It’s a lot of work for me
How can I work it out?
How can I tell you that?
How can I tell you that?
If you want to stay awake
I will lead you here by my side
If you are tired of just being friends
Tell me so, you don’t have to say it twice
If you want it too, stay awake
And I’ll be your wonderful night
If you swear you will never let me, let me down
