BOY: | |
I remember every little thing | |
As if it happened only yesterday | |
Parking by the lake | |
And there was not another car in sight | |
And I never had a girl | |
Looking any better than you did | |
And all the kids at school | |
They were wishing they were me that night | |
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight | |
It never felt so good, it never felt so right | |
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife | |
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife | |
C'mon, hold on tight | |
C'mon, hold on tight | |
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night | |
I can see paradise by the dashboard light | |
GIRL: | |
Ain't no doubt about it we were doubly blessed | |
'Cause we were barely seventeen | |
And we were barely dressed | |
BOTH: | |
Ain't no doubt about it | |
Baby got to go out and shout it | |
Ain't no doubt about it | |
We were doubly blessed | |
BOY: 'Cause we were barely seventeen | |
And we were barely dressed | |
Baby don'cha hear my heart | |
You got it drowing out the radio | |
I've been waiting so long | |
For you to come along and have some fun | |
And I gotta let you know | |
No you're never gonna regret it | |
So open up your eyes, I got a big surprise | |
It'll feel all right | |
Well I wanna make you motor run | |
And now our bodies are oh so close and tight | |
It never felt so good, it never felt so right | |
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife | |
Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife | |
C'mon, Hold on tight | |
C'mon, Hold on tight | |
BOTH: | |
Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night | |
I can see paradise by the dashboard light | |
Paradise by the dashboard light | |
You got to do what you can | |
And let Mother Nature do the rest | |
Ain't no doubt about it | |
We were doubly blessed | |
'Cause we were barely seventeen | |
And we were barely | |
We're gonna go all the way tonight | |
We're gonna go all the way | |
And tonight's the night | |
RADIO BROADCAST: | |
OK, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here | |
Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth | |
There's the wind-up, and there it is | |
A line shot up the middle, look at him go | |
This boy can really fly | |
He's rounding first and really turning it on now | |
He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second | |
The ball is bobbled out in the center | |
And here's the throw and what a throw | |
He's gonna slide in head first | |
Here he comes, he's out | |
No, wait, safe, safe at second base | |
This kid really makes things happen out there | |
Batter steps up to the plate | |
Here's the pitch, he's going | |
Amd what a jump he's got | |
He's trying for third | |
Here's the throw | |
It's in the dirt, safe a third | |
Holw cow, stolen base | |
He's taking a pretty big lead out there | |
Almost daring them to pick him off | |
The pitcher glances over, winds-up and it's bunted | |
Bunted down the third base line | |
The suicide squeeze is on | |
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close | |
Here's the throw, here's the play at the plate | |
Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it | |
GIRL: | |
Stop right there | |
I gotta know right now | |
Before we go any further | |
Do you love me | |
Will you love me forever | |
Do you need me | |
Will you make me so happy | |
For the rest of my life | |
Will you take me away | |
And will you make me your wife | |
Do you love me | |
Will you love me forever | |
Do you need me | |
Will you make me so happy | |
For the rest of my life | |
Will you take me away | |
And will you make me your wife | |
I gotta know right now | |
Before we go any further | |
Do you love me | |
Will you love me forever | |
BOY: | |
Let me sleep on it | |
Baby, baby let me sleep on it | |
Let me sleep on it | |
And I'll give you an answer in the morning | |
Let me sleep on it | |
Baby, baby let me sleep on it | |
Let me sleep on it | |
And I'll give you an answer in the morning | |
Let me sleep on it | |
Baby, baby let me sleep on it | |
Let me sleep on it | |
And I'll give you an answer in the morning | |
GIRL: | |
I gotta know right now | |
Do you love me | |
Will you love me forever | |
Do you need me | |
Will you make me so happy | |
For the rest of my life | |
Will you take me away | |
And will you make me your wife | |
I gotta know right now | |
Before we go any further | |
Do you love me | |
And will you love me forever | |
BOY: | |
Let me sleep on it | |
Baby, baby let me sleep on it | |
Let me sleep on it | |
And I'll give you an answer in the morning | |
Let me sleep on it | |
GIRL: | |
Will you love me forever | |
BOY: | |
Let me sleep on it | |
GIRL | |
Will you love me forever | |
BOY: | |
I couldn't take it any longer | |
Lord I was crazed | |
And when the feeling came upon me | |
Like a tidal wave | |
I started swearing to my god | |
And on my mother's grave | |
That I would love you to the end of time | |
I swore I would love you to the end of time | |
So now I'm praying for the end of time | |
To hurry up and arrive | |
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you | |
I don't think that I can really survive | |
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow | |
But God only knows what I can do right now | |
I'm praying for the end of time | |
So I can end my time with you | |
BOY: | |
It was long ago and it was far away, | |
And it was so much better than it is today. | |
GIRL: | |
It never felt so good, It never felt so right | |
And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife. |
