[Verse 1]

I remember flashbacks lighting up Magic Whip

Eight o'clock, Kowloon emptiness, handle it

The white horse image I had of you eleven seconds ago

I didn't send you, so you will never know

I got away for a little while

But then it came back much harder


[Verse 2]

Swinging on a cable up to Po Lin

Climbing panda, ghostly wine, and a battery

That light in your eyes I search for religiously

When it's not there, oh Lord, it's hurting me

I got away for a little while

But then it came back much harder


[Chorus]

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?

'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong

It's the last ride boarding here tonight

Out in the bay (Out in the bay)

I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays


[Verse 3]

Feeling out of body here, what can I do?

It's up to the top every day to join with you

I had to get away for a little while

But then it came back much harder


[Chorus]

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?

'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong

It's the last ride boarding here tonight

Out in the bay (Out in the bay)

I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?

'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong

It's the last ride boarding here tonight

Out in the bay (Out in the bay)

I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays

Bright rays, bright rays
