|
Nights were warm |
|
Dreams were easy |
|
No one standing overhead |
|
Conversation didn't mean much |
|
We were hungry but could not be fed |
|
Radio blasting silly little love songs |
|
We only listened for the beat |
|
Taking our chances |
|
Out there on the mean streets |
|
Hiding in the shadows from the heat |
|
We weren't lovers just brave strangers |
|
As we fought and we tumbled through the night |
|
We were players not arrangers |
|
As we jammed till the dawn's early light |
|
Swimming in the big lake |
|
Taking it easy |
|
Taking any comfort we could find |
|
Didn't need the real truth |
|
Didn't need the meaning |
|
Straight ahead ignoring every sign |
|
Every sign |
|
And oh I remember |
|
I know you do too |
|
Oh that one evening |
|
I know you do too |
|
BabyI know you remember it too |
|
The moon was high |
|
Moon was flying high |
|
We were hiding in the backwoods |
|
Hiding out in the backwoods |
|
With the moon flying high |
|
My hand was shaking |
|
And you took my hand |
|
And it went all right |
|
And it went all right |
|
It went all right |
|
So we walked out hardly speaking |
|
Disappearing in the night |
|
Saw each other a few times after |
|
But we never really got it right |
|
We weren't lovers just brave strangers |
|
As we rolled and we tumbled through the night |
|
We were players not arrangers |
|
And we jammed till the dawn's early light |
