when i'm driving in the sunshine, turning up the radio
i wonder back to the day when my baby ran away
he was sex dreams
and denim jeanswe used to stay up all night
playing late till it was bright
but then he found the guitar
and our worlds were pulled far
he was sweet as nightmarilyn monroe is turning in her grave
our world is truly far from saved
it's our youth, we've seen it alldays of whisky, peace and joy
are the ones who ruled our world
now i lay awake at night
dripping sweat and feeling fat
i'm a bleeding heartdidn't deserve my affection
but he caught my attention
sucked me down to the bottom
where we both got bent
i'm a broken arrowmarilyn monroe is turning in her grave
our world is truly far from saved
it's our youth, we've seen it allhe missed the tales of classic beauty
and of miss bo peep
times when a flag could fly
and a nation could have pride
we played cowboys and indianswhen i'm driving in the sunshine, turning up the radio
i wonder back to the day when my baby ran away
he was sex dreams
and denim jeans
