Outside the Lines

She took a long slow draw of a Pall Mall
 In the shadows of a Friday night bleacher
 One Converse Chuck up against the pole
 She was happy that no one could reach her
 She kinda dug the way I wore my hair
 And the t-tops on my old Trans-Am
 I thought about her when I chose what to wear
 'Cause she likes ripped jeans and Ray-Bans
 Outside
 Where the wild things run
 Outside
 We were children of the sun
 Outside
 Where only knew where
 We got what we wanted
 Didn't know what we needed
 Didn't care about the lines we cheated
 Outside
 She never let on about her lightnin' eyes
 But she never wanted to go home
 Faster we drove down memory lane
 The tougher her James Dean heart would grow
 Some nights we'd walk the railroad tracks
 Down to the river at grist mill
 And wonder if we were the only ones
 Livin' for the moment and off the rails
 Outside
 Where the wild things run
 Outside
 We were children of the sun
 Outside
 Where only we knew where
 We got what we wanted
 Didn't know what we needed
 Didn't care about the lines we cheated
 Outside
 Every now and then I drift back to that spray paint summer
 The full moon nights, the overpass
 Livin' life like a lake cliff jumper
 Lookin' back it's only now I understand
 Why she cried when I held her hand
 Outside
 Where the wild things run
 Outside
 We were children of the sun
 Outside
 Where only we knew where
 We got what we wanted
 Didn't know what we needed
 Didn't care about the lines we cheated
 Outside
