Meat Loaf Don't Leave Your Mark On Me Lyrics

Under your protective wing I walked into
the night
And a thousand angry demons up and
took flight
I went running through the fields with
the fever in my veins
And the rain came crashing down and
tried to clear my name
Above my head, all in red, I could see
you bearing down on me
You said you're not running out, you said
you're not leaving now
I will find you, there is no way
I'll keep tracking you down in the still of
the night
Forever, you're mine forever
Chorus:
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to
reply
I'm not staying, I'm just killing time
Don't leave your mark on me, no need to
reply
I'm not staying, no, I'm not staying no
This nightmare never ends, memories of absent friends
Mistress of the darkness, accomplice of
the night
A shadow in the doorway beckons me
inside
And something led the way though I
couldn't see its face
And a voice from deep inside me
screamed to get out of this place
In my head, someone said that the jailor
turned the key on me
He said you're not running out, he said
you're not leaving now
I will find you, there ain't no way, no
way, yeah
(chorus)
This nightmare never ends, memories of
absent friends
(Solo)
Don't leave your mark on me
(Nightmares that will never end, drink a
toast to absent friends)
(repeats out)
