You were standing with your girlfriends in the street Falling back on forever I wonder what you came to be I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes I never was a quitter Oblivious to school girls' lies And when I look back on those neon nights The leather seat, the passage rite I feel the heat, I see the light...
Miss Atomic Bomb, making out we got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows in the moonlight Through the desert on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah we were innocent and young
Cast out of the night, you got a foolish heart So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part Feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack Your soul was innocent, you kissed him and she painted it black You should've seen your little face, burning for love Holding on for your life All I wanted was a little touch, a little tenderness and truth I didn't ask for much, no Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time...
Miss Atomic Bomb Making out we got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows in the moonlight Taking chances on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah we were innocent and young
The dust cloud is settled, and my eyes are clear But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear...
Miss Atomic Bomb I'm standing here, sweat on my skin And this love that I've cradled is wearing thin But I'm standing here, and you're too late Your shockwave whispered and sealed your fate
It's a proving ground And you took a chance On a loser's game But you can't survive When you want it all There's another side
