Speed kills, but beauty lives forever

Speed thrills but beauty knows your name

I fell ill inside eternal winter

And stood still beside eternal flame

Cuz when I ride

With you tonight

We can move

At the speed of light

With all I’d asked and all I’d pray…

The last rose of summer would stay

The first time that I ever saw you

Crashing hard through days of pain

You were one of God’s children

Left to cry out in the rain

Waiting to be saved again

Cuz when I ride

With you tonight

We can move

At the speed of light

And all I’d ask and all I’d pray

The last rose of summer

The last rose of summer

The last rose of summer is gone

Long gone

The last rose of summer is gone

But

When I Rise

With you tonight

We can move

At the speed of light

Forever Young

Forever Blind

Into the Stars

We Rock Tonight

The last rose of summer

The last rose of summer

The last Rose of Summer is gone

Long gone
