Big city miles stretching out into the terminal horizon
|
Don't you know we had to get away?
|
It was two kids with a beat up Nova,
|
and a dream and a two a.m. song
|
It was two kids with a beat up Nova singing come carry on
|
|
Come carry on 'till the night's all gone
|
come carry on come right where we belong
|
|
The impossible girl lit a cigarette
|
and said "I don't give a damn if we never come home"
|
and I turned to her in the old starlight
|
and a tender amazement swallowed up the night
|
We could walk along be forever strong
|
drive into the night, and the right, and the wrong
|
It was two kids with a beat up Nova, and a dream, and a two A.M. song
|
|
Chorus
|
|
There ain't no dream like the one that's real
|
Ashby to Eighty
|
Eighty to the Bridge
|
Bridge down to One
|
Route One carry on
|
We ate the night up and we shot the big coast
|
'cause the shoreline makes a heart open like a rose
|
She found a song on the radio
|
and it wiped all the blood off my halo
|
It was two kids, whose heart were their own
|
Toughest the world has ever known
|
|
Chorus
