Now the parking lot is empty Everyones gone someplace I pick you up and in the trunk Ive packed A cooler and a 2-day suitcase Cause theres a place we like to drive Way out in the country Five miles out of the city limit were singing And your hands upon my knee
So were okay Were fine Baby Im here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head Im stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart Well look at them together then well take them apart Adding up the total of a love thats true Multiply life by the power of two
You know the things that I am afraid of Im not afraid to tell And if we ever leave a legacy Its that we loved each other well Cause Ive seen the shadows of so many people Trying on the treasures of youth But a road that fancy and fast Ends in a fatal crash And Im glad we got off To tell you the truth
Cause were okay Were fine Baby Im here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head Im stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart Well look at them together then well take them apart Adding up the total of a love thats true Multiply life by the power of two
All the shiny little trinkets of temptation (make new friends) Something new instead of something old (but keep the old) All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface (but remember what is gold) And its fools gold (what is gold) Fools gold (what is gold) Fools gold
Now were talking about a difficult thing And your eyes are getting wet I took us for better and I took us for worse Dont you ever forget it Now the steel bars between me and a promise Suddenly bend with ease The closer Im bound in love to you The closer I am to free
So were okay Were fine Baby Im here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head Im stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart Well look at them together then well take them apart Adding up the total of a love thats true Multiply life by the power of two
