I’m your worn in leather jacket I’m the volume in your fucked up teenage band A Pack of smokes and a six pack I’m the dreams you had walkin’ down the railroad tracks You and me
I’m your first taste of romance I’m your first broken heart on a Saturday night Guys like us ain’t got no chance But I’m the thing that keeps you and me alive But not forever
So take me down the road Take me to the show It’s something to believe in That no one else knows But don’t take me for granted
I’m the blood on your guitar I’m that wave you caught back in 1975 I’m as strong as a thousand armies I’m as soft as a petal on a long stem rose I am love
So take me down the road Take me to the show It’s something to believe in That no one else knows But don’t take me for granted I’m with you when you’re born You can take me when you die With all the reasons why But don’t take me for granted
