Well that big red sun was sinkin' slow
|
That rising had a haunting glow
|
I could see those heat waves rising off the ground
|
|
We were sittin'on go at that old stop sign
|
Headlights shinin' on the county line
|
It was do or die, had to get out of that town
|
|
Well honey, you said run
|
We were so young
|
|
Tryin' to the world on fire
|
Turn the key and spark the wire
|
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
|
The future was an open road
|
Gone in a cloud of smoke
|
Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires
|
Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire
|
|
Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire
|
|
We were blazin' down the road like Kerouac
|
No time to stop and cover our tracks
|
We were too damn hot for any one town to hold
|
|
Yeah, we burned through a few good years
|
Then you started looking back in that rear view mirror
|
Right outside of Reno the trail got cold
|
You said you'd had enough of this ramblin' love
|
|
Tryin' to the world on fire
|
Turn the key and spark the wire
|
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
|
The future was an open road
|
Gone in a cloud of smoke
|
Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires
|
For a while there girl, we were settin' the world on fire
|
|
Pullin' on a lucky strike 'bout to head west
|
Ridin' off into God's sunset
|
It's times like this a always think of you
|
But honey you know me I'll always be..
|
|
Tryin' to the world on fire
|
Turn the key and spark the wire
|
Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire
|
The future was an open road
|
Gone in a cloud of smoke
|
Leavin' a trail of flames behind these tires
|
See I'm out here girl settin' the world on fire
|
|
I'm settin' the world on fire
|
Yeah, I'm settin' the world on fire
|
