It's after midnight in the city of broken dreams
Down in the alley, Galileo meets his pack of thieves
Over the river, by the old hotel
There's a big car coming like a bat out of hell
It's the dangerous stranger in his ghostly limousine
You get the feeling that he's running in an endless race
Driving throught the city like a razor across it's face
Stops on the corner in a flash of flame
He calls to me, "Hey boy, whats your name ?"
He's the stranger with a danger
If you ever get to play his game
I want to go for a ride,
To see what lies on the other side
I want to go for a ride tonight... tonight.
I climb right in like a fool i say i'll go
I listen to the messages comin' through his radio
Is that my name on the channel nine ?
They say : "You're going away for a long, long time !"
With the dangerous stranger from a station on the other side
I want to go for a ride
To see what lies on the other side
I want to go for a ride tonight... tonight.
The night is black and the stars no longer burn
The radios says that we're passed the point of no return
I scream at the driver but he says : "No way!"
"You shouldn't have come if you didn't want to stay !"
He's the dangerous stranger on a highway to the end of time
