Lyrics
Find another songYou know you make me crazy
And my mind is racing
You're wastin' all my time
Someone come and save me, oh, yeah
'Cause when I need you
I can see through
And I feel you right now
On the highway doin' my way
(And I want you to feel as I'm going down)
'Cause I am not afraid and I won't go down in flames
'Cause nothing's gonna be the same
And everything you know
You keep inside your soul
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne
Oh, yeah
Our golden days are chasin'
And you're not gonna face it
The reason's in the rhyme
You walked on what was sacred
Oh, yeah
And when I need to
I can reach through
And I feel you right now
It's a new day
But your skies are grey
And I want you to feel
When I'm going down
'Cause I am not afraid and I won't go down in flames
'Cause nothing's gonna be the same
And everything you know
You keep inside your soul
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne
Everything you know
You keep inside your soul
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne
I am not afraid (I am not afraid)
And I won't go down in flames (won't go down in flames)
'Cause nothing's gonna be the same (nothing's gonna be the same)
And everything you know (everything you know)
You keep inside your soul (keep inside your soul)
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne (tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne)
I am not afraid (not afraid)
And I won't go down in flames (no, I won't go down in flames)
'Cause nothing's gonna be the same (nothing's gonna be)
And everything you know (everything you know)
You keep inside your soul (you keep inside your soul)
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be John Wayne (John Wayne)
