Now the parking lot is empty |
|
Everyone's gone someplace |
|
I pick you up and in the trunk |
|
I've packed |
|
A cooler and a two day suitcase' |
|
Cause there's a place we like to drive |
|
Way out in the country |
|
And five miles out of the city limit we're singin' |
|
And your hand's upon my leg |
|
So we're ok, we're fine |
|
Baby I'm here to stop your crying |
|
Chase all the ghosts from your head |
|
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed |
|
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart |
|
Look at them together then we'll take them apart |
|
Adding up the total of a love that's true |
|
Multiply life by the power of two |
|
You know the things that |
|
I am afraid of |
|
I'm not afraid to tell |
|
And if we ever leave a legacy |
|
It's that we loved each other well |
|
Because I've seen the shadows of so many people |
|
Still trying on the treasures of youth |
|
But a road that fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash |
|
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth |
|
So we're ok, we're fine |
|
Baby I'm here to stop your crying |
|
Chase all the ghosts from your head |
|
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed |
|
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart |
|
Look at them together then we'll take them apart |
|
Adding up the total of a love that's true |
|
Multiply life by the power of two |
|
All the shiny little trinkets of temptation |
|
Something new instead of something old |
|
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface |
|
And it's fool's gold, fool's gold, fool's gold |
|
Now we're talking about a difficult thing |
|
Your eyes are getting wet |
|
I took us for better and |
|
I took us for worse |
|
And don't you ever forget it |
|
Now there's steel bars between me and a promise |
|
Suddenly bend with ease |
|
The closer |
|
I'm bound in love to you |
|
The closer |
|
I am to free |
|
So we're ok, we're fine |
|
Baby I'm here to stop your crying |
|
Chase all the ghosts from your head |
|
I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed |
|
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart |
|
Look at them together then we'll take them apart |
|
Adding up the total of a love that's true |
|
Multiply life by the power of two |
