Paradise By The Dashboard Light

Lyrics

Well I remember every little thing
 As if it happened only yesterday
 You think you do but you don't
 Parking by the lake
 And there was not another car in sight
 There was only one parkings spot by the lake
 And I never had a girl
 Looking any better than you did
 Well that's true
 And all the kids at school
 They were wishing they were me that night
 And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
 It never felt so good, it never felt so right
 And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
 Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
 C'mon! Hold on tight!
 C'mon! Hold on tight!
 Thought it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
 I can see paradise by the dashboard light
 Ain't no doubt about it
 We were doubly blessed
 'Cause we were barely seventeen
 And we were barely dressed
 Ain't no doubt about it
 Baby got to go and shout it
 Ain't no doubt about it
 We were doubly blessed
 'Cause we were barely seventeen
 And we were barely dressed
 Baby doncha hear my heart
 You got it drowning out the radio
 I've been waiting so long
 For you to come along and have some fun
 Well I gotta let you know
 No you're never gonna regret it
 So open up those eyes I got a big surprise
 It'll feel all right
 Well I wanna make your motor run
 And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
 It never felt so good, it never felt so right
 And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
 Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
 C'mon! Hold on tight!
 C'mon! Hold on tight!

 Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
 I can see paradise by the dashboard light
 Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night (Cold in the deep dark night)
 Paradise by the dashboard light
 You got to do what you can
 And let Mother Nature do the rest
 Ain't no doubt about it
 We were doubly blessed
 'Cause we were barely seventeen
 And we were barely
 We're gonna go all the way tonight
 We're gonna go all the way
 Tonight's the night
 We're gonna go all the way tonight
 We're gonna go all the way
 Tonight's the night
 We're gonna go all the way tonight
 We're gonna go all the way
 Tonight's the night
 We're gonna go all the way tonight
 We're gonna go all the way
 Tonight's the night
 Well, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here
 Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth
 There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle
 And look at him go. This boy can really fly!
 He's rounding first and really turning it on now
 He's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for second
 The ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the throw
 Ooh and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he comes, and he is out! Haha
 No, wait, safe-safe at second base
 This kid really makes things happen out there. Batter steps up to the plate
 Here's the pitch and he's going, ooh and what a jump he's got
 He's trying for third, here's the throw, and it's in the dirt-safe at third!
 Holy cow, he's gotta make it!
 The pitcher glances over, winds up, and it's bunted
 Bunted down the third base line, the suicide squeeze is on!
 Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close
 Here is the throw, here is the plant
 Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!
 Stop right there!
 I gotta know right now!
 Before we go any further!
 Do you love me?
 Will you love me forever?
 Do you need me?
 Will you never leave me?
 Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
 Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
 Do you love me!?
 Will you love me forever!?
 Do you need me!?
 Will you never leave me!?
 Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life!?
 Will you take me away and will you make me your wife!?
 I gotta know right now
 Before we go any further
 Do you love me!?
 Will you love me forever!?
 Let me sleep on it
 Baby, baby let me sleep on it
 Let me sleep on it
 I'll give you an answer in the morning
 Let me sleep on it
 Baby, baby let me sleep on it
 Let me sleep on it
 I'll give you an answer in the morning
 Let me sleep on it
 Baby, baby let me sleep on it
 Let me sleep on it
 I'll give you an answer in the morning
 I gotta know right now
 Do you love me? (Let me sleep on it)
 Will you love me forever? (Baby, baby let me sleep on it)
 Do you need me?
 Will you never leave me?
 Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? (Let me sleep on it)
 Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? (I'll give you an answer in the morning)
 I gotta know right now!
 Before we go any further
 Do you love me?
 Will you love me forever?

 Well boy, what is it gonna be?
 Yes or no?
 What is it gonna be, boy?
 Yes or no?
 Let me sleep on it
 Will you love me forever?
 Let me sleep on it
 Will you love me forever?
 I couldn't take it any longer
 Lord I was crazed
 And when the feeling came upon me
 Like a tidal wave
 I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
 That I would love you to the end of time
 I swore that I would love you to the end of time!
 So now I'm praying for the end of time
 To hurry up and arrive
 'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
 I don't think that I can really survive
 I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
 But God only knows what I can do right now
 I'm praying for the end of time
 It's all that I can do
 Praying for the end of time
 So I can end my time with you!
 ♪
 Well it was long ago and it was far away
 So much better that it is today
 Long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good)
 So much better that it is today (It never felt so right and we were glowing like a metal)
 Long ago and it was far away (On the edge of a knife, it never felt so good)
 So much better that it is today (It never felt so right and we were glowing like a metal)
 Long ago and it was far away (On the edge of a knife)
 So much better
