Paradise by the dashboard light

Well, 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 girl
Looking 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!
Well, c'mon! Hold on tight!

(Though 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 don't you 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 ya know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your 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!
Well, 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
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night
We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go all the way
And tonight's the night

(Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here,
Two down, nobody on, no score,
Bottom of the ninth, there's the wind-up and there it is,
A line shot up the middle, 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, and what a throw!
He's gonna slide in head first,
Here he comes, he's out!
No, wait, safe, safe at second base,
This kid really makes things happen out there.
