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 singin' |
|
And your hand's upon my knees |
|
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 |
|
I 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 fancy and fast ends in a fatal crash |
|
And I'm glad we got off to tell you the truth |
|
'Cause 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 |
|
But all you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface |
|
And it's fool's gold |
|
Fool's 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 |
|
And don't you ever forget it |
|
Now there's steel bars between me and a promise |
|
Suddenly bend with ease |
|
And 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 |
