Meat Loaf - Paradise by the dashboard light

Tekst :

BOY:
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake and there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girlLooking any better than you did
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

GIRL:
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

BOY:
Cause we were barely dressed 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
And I gotta let you know no you re never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surpriseI
t 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 - 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 and tonight s the night...

III. Praying For The End Of Time
BOY:
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 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 life with you!!
BOY:
It was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better that it is today
GIRL:
It never felt so good It never felt so right
And we were glowing like a metal on the edge of a knife

Inne utwory

  • Nocturnal pleasure
  • Keep driving
  • Hear a sound of a heart breaking
  • Midnight at the lost and found
  • Jumpin the gun
  • Is nothing sacred
  • You never can be too sure about the girl
  • Sailor to a siren
  • If you really want to
  • Testify
  • If this is the last kiss
  • Masculine
  • Cheatin in your dreams
  • Burning down
  • One more kiss

    Kid gloves

    A world of difference
    A world so out of touch
    Overwhelmed by everything
    But wanting more so much

    Call it blind frustration
    Call it blind man s bluff
    Call each other names
    Your voices rude
    Your voices rough
    Then you learn the lesson
    That it s cool to be so...

    Fly to the rainbow

    Life is empty, can t remember anytime before,
    On a plain lit cold December, see it evermore,
    Gliding through this life, and another is a child,
    and we re doing games, and losing things,
    Always playing gigs.
    Somewhere in the sky, where the moon the...

    Kings of oblivion

    Cold nights, dark days
    Love moves in mysterious ways
    It s so sweet like a mother s tongue
    Whose symphony protects her young
    But this truth ain t what it seems
    Cause you and I have different dreams
    You rise up but you never learn
    As we try to shake...

    Funky

    Funky is the word,
    You re right,
    Or grow strong,
    Funky is the word.

    Oh, this is so funky,
    Funky in my heart,
    This girl is funky,
    The girl in my dreams cracks me up.

    Funky, oh that s the...

    Through with you

    Can you see me
    Floating above your head
    As you lay in bed
    Thinking about everything
    That you did not do
    Cause saying I love you
    Has nothing to do with meaning it

    And I don t trust you
    Cause every...
