Hunting for You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I walk around these empty streets
They say there's nothing left of me
I say there's no one here for you
Down in the land
The land of the blind
The one eyed king
He stole my mind
And I let him
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I like's
Illegal, seductive
Addictive, immoral
Corrosive, destructive
But I've got kind words in my heart
It's a passion
Your fashions in fashion
[Chorus]
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
I walk around these empty streets
They say there's nothing left of me
I say there's no one here for you
Down in the land
The land of the blind
The one eyed king
He stole my mind
And I let him
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I like's
Illegal, seductive
Addictive, immoral
Corrosive, destructive
But I've got kind words in my heart
It's a passion
Your fashions in fashion
[Chorus]
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
[Verse 2]
The stone is set, the dye is cast
I am the wreckage of my past
And I am not afraid to ask
I sail away my sanity
Just to find some company
Now darlin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I like's
Illegal, seductive
Addictive, immoral
Corrosive, destructive
Your addiction to danger
Makes me no stranger
It's fashion, oh fashion
[Chorus]
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
The stone is set, the dye is cast
I am the wreckage of my past
And I am not afraid to ask
I sail away my sanity
Just to find some company
Now darlin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Everything I like's
Illegal, seductive
Addictive, immoral
Corrosive, destructive
Your addiction to danger
Makes me no stranger
It's fashion, oh fashion
[Chorus]
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
[Bridge]
I'll be good
But I won't be cheap
There is no limit here for me
And I'll take everything I need
I mean everything, everything
You can waste away in fashion
When you chase the daylight home
You could waste away in fashion
When you chase the daylight home
[Chorus]
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
(Oooohooooo)
(You could waste
Away in fashion)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
(When you chase
The daylight home)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
I'll be good
But I won't be cheap
There is no limit here for me
And I'll take everything I need
I mean everything, everything
You can waste away in fashion
When you chase the daylight home
You could waste away in fashion
When you chase the daylight home
[Chorus]
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for
(Oooohooooo)
(You could waste
Away in fashion)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
(When you chase
The daylight home)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
(Oooohooooo)
Tonight I'm hunting for you
