| Back in 92' my folks were trying to get by,
|
| Watching the stock market climb on the horizon.
|
| Los Angeles was burning but the wicked still survive,
|
| You said you couldn’t love me but you’d give it a try.
|
| The chill in 95' Yeltsin’s finger on the trigger,
|
| Oklahoma City came knockin on our door.
|
| The bull was gettin' fat while the rest of us got thinner,
|
| And I kissed your lips in Saint Augustine but wanted something more.
|
| We were lovers in broke down cars
|
| Watching lights over the city’s, crossing hearts and singing
|
| We’ll never fall apart.
|
| yeah but we were only kids then, we were only wishing on dead stars
|
| All the presidents lied while the princess’s died,
|
| And we braced for another hurricane season.
|
| There were grass stains on our jeans, there were diamonds in our eyes,
|
| And my mother said 'never stop believing'.
|
| We turned an artificial light on in a digital city,
|
| you can download your heartbreak for free.
|
| All those zeros and ones can make anything look pretty,
|
| But the only thing that’s real in this world is you and me.
|
| We were lovers in broke down cars
|
| Watching lights over the city’s, crossing hearts and singing
|
| We’ll never fall apart.
|
| yeah but we were only kids then, we were only wishing on dead stars
|
| Wishing on dead stars
|
| We were growing up fast. |
| In the shadow of an ocean
|
| And our hearts got so big that we couldn’t even hold em'
|
| Can I hold your hand tonight?
|
| I cut out the lights on the night of Y2K,
|
| So I could hold you close and say 'it's not the end'
|
| Everyone went quiet, there was no where to run away
|
| you said 'this world won’t last forever, but tonight we can pretend'
|
| We were lovers in broke down cars
|
| Watching lights over the city’s, crossing hearts and singing
|
| We’ll never fall apart.
|
| yeah but we were only dreamin', we were only dreamin'
|
| lovers in broke down cars
|
| Watching lights over the city’s, crossing hearts and singing
|
| We’ll never fall apart.
|
| yeah but we were only kids then, we were only wishing on dead stars,
|
| Wishing on dead stars
|
| Wishing on dead stars. |
