|
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 |
|
Five miles out of the city limit we're singing and your |
|
Hand's upon my knee |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
So we're okay |
|
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 |
|
We'll 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 |
|
Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people |
|
Trying on the treasures of youth |
|
But a road that's fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash |
|
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Cause we're okay |
|
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 |
|
We'll 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 |
|
(Make new friends) |
|
Something new instead of something old |
|
(But keep the old) |
|
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface |
|
(But remember) |
|
And it's fools gold |
|
(What is gold) |
|
Fools gold |
|
(What is gold) |
|
Fools gold |
|
(What is gold) |
|
Now we're talking about a difficult thing and your |
|
Eyes are getting wet |
|
I took us for better and I took us for worse |
|
Don't you ever forget it |
|
The 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 |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Cause we're okay |
|
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 |
|
We'll 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 |
