Back For Good Lyrics - Singles - Jim Steinman

The sea is whipping the sky 

The sky is whipping the sea 

You can hide away forever from the storm 

But you'll never hide away from me 

The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark 

And we may lose everything in the wind 

But the Northern Lights are burning 

And they're giving off sparks 

I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin 

You know I'm onto your scent 

We're near the end of the chase 

Take a look out your window and I'll be there in the night 

Your love is so close that I can almost taste it 

The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark 

And we may lose everything in the wind 

But the Northern Lights are burning 

And they're giving off sparks 

I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin 

You've been living your life like a girl in a cage 

And you whisper when I want you to shout 

And I wonder why you wanna go on sleeping 

When there's nothing left to dream about 

But you better remember 

If it's something I want then it's something I need 

I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed 

If it's something I want then it's something I need 

I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed 

And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever 

I'm never gonna be what I should 

And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while 

But I know that I'll be bad for good 

I know that I'll be bad for good 

I know that I'll be bad for good 

Your eyes are darker than sin 

And I've been watching them glow 

Take a chance on a promise and a roll of the dice 

Put your foot on the gas, let it go, let it go, let it go 

You've been living your life like a girl in a cage 

And you whisper when I want you to shout 

And wonder why you wanna go on sleeping 

When there's nothing left to dream about 

But you better remember 

If it's something I want then it's something I need 

I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed 

If it's something I want then it's something I need 

I wasn't built for comfort I was built for speed 

And I know that I'm gonna be like this forever 

I'm never gonna be what I should 

And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while 

And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while 

And you think that I'll be bad for just a little while 

But I know that I'll be bad for good 

I know that I'll be bad for good 

I know that I'll be bad for good 

I know that I'll be bad for good 

Bad for good 

Bad for good 

For the good of some thrills on a long frigid night 

For the good of the fire in your soul 

For the good of the kiss let me hold you so tight 

For the good of getting out of control 

For the good of the action and a race in the dark 

For the good of those chills up your spine 

For the good of the rock and the roll in your heart 

For the good of what's yours and what's mine 

For the good of believing in a life after birth 

For the good of your body so bright 

For the good of the search for some heaven on earth 

For the good of one hell of a night 

For the good of one hell of a night 

For the good of the action and a race in the dark 

For the good of the fire in your soul 

For the good of the rock and the roll in your heart 

For the good of getting out of control 

For the good of believing in a life after birth 

For the good of your body so bright 

For the good of the search for some heaven on earth 

For the good of one hell of a night, for the good of one hell of a night 

God speed! 

God speed! 

God speed! speed us away! 

God speed! 

God speed! 

God speed! speed us away! 

I'll be bad for good (God speed) 

I'll be bad for good (God speed) 

I'll be bad for good (God speed) 

Speed us away, speed us away, speed us away, speed us away 

The sea is whipping the sky 

The sky is whipping the sea 

You can hide away forever from the storm 

But you'll never hide away from me 

The icy cold will cut us like a knife in the dark 

And we may lose everything in the wind 

But the Northern Lights are burning 

And they're giving off sparks 

I want to wrap myself around you like a winter skin 

I know that you can be bad 

At least a little while 

But if you give me a chance, give me one little chance 

And give me all the love that you should 

Then instead of being bad for just a little while 

Then instead of being bad for just a little while 

Then instead of being bad for just a little while 

I'm gonna make you bad for good 

I'm gonna make you bad for good 

I'm gonna make you bad for good 

I know that you'll be bad for good 

You'll be bad for good
