Lyrics
Hold her hand through the black light
Baby, it's a forest land of trick slides
Honey just take your time close her eyes
"I'm scared", she whispered as she runs to hide
Into a back room where she paints on a smile
She hears a sound, she hears a sound
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh
She waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
So she left town with the rockshow
Keep it cool at the freakshow
Baby, it's a happy place; if you lose it, honey
Just take your time, close his eyes
"Touch me", he whispered as he walks to the light
From the window, there's visions of a house in the night
He hears a sound, he hears a sound
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh
She waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
So she left town with the rockshow
Hold her, tell her that you need her
Please undress her slowly, uh-oh
Never hold the girl too tightly
She can't breathe when you speak
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh!
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
We waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
so we left town with the rockshow
Rock show, rock show, rockshow
80s Version
Hold her hand through the black light
Baby, it's a forest land of trick slides
Honey just take your time close her eyes
"I'm scared", she whispered as she runs to hide
Into a back room where she paints on a smile
She hears a sound, she hears a sound
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh
She waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
So she left town with the rock show
Keep it cool at the freakshow
Baby, it's a happy place if you lose it, honey
Just take your time, close his eyes
"Touch me", he whispered as he runs to the light
From the window, there's visions of a house in the night
He hears a sound, he hears a sound
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh
He waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
So he left town with the rock show
Hold her, tell her that you need her
Please undress her slowly, uh-oh
Never hold the girl too tightly
She can't breathe when you speak
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh!
It could have been love
It could have been anybody
Anybody, uh-oh
We waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around
So we left town with the rock show
We waited for love
We waited for anybody
Anybody
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh!
We waited for love
But there wasn't anybody around...
