I’ve lost in dreams where you used to be mine
I’m losing my mind and in my head
The lights are on, but there’s no one inside

And familiar faces hunting my dreams

When I keep reliving that night

Everything dies, baby, that’s a fact
But maybe everything that dies some day comes back
Put your makeup on, fix your hair up pretty
And meet me tonight in Atlantic City
