[00:03.25]
[00:11.64] Shots rang out
[00:13.72] Valentine's Day
[00:16.58] Fragrant remnants of a strewn bouquet
[00:21.94] A lovers' bloody quarrel
[00:24.22] Sweet chocolates gone to waste
[00:27.09] He took the petty cash
[00:29.07] And drove through California State
[00:32.19] In a San Fernando pool hall
[00:37.39] He caught the eye of some young broad
[00:42.79] Turns out the girl is only seventeen and thinks criminals are God
[00:58.86] She was pretty
[01:00.74] As pretty as a runaway can be
[01:03.83] And he was crazy for her
[01:05.88] As crazy as a crazy person can be
[01:09.29] The motel window framed her face
[01:11.92] A wash of lemon line
[01:14.84] Sallow yellow skin
[01:16.83] Sour green eyes
[01:19.88] Left in the drawer with the Bible
[01:22.89] An old syringe
[01:25.00] "God is lethal," he says with a knowing grin
[01:29.95] Don't you forget about your past, boy
[01:35.13] Don't you forget about the gun
[01:40.55] Don't you forget about Mexico
[01:43.49] That's where you're gonna run
[01:57.00] Picture postcard
[01:58.68] She stole the night before
[02:01.45] With a dirty magazine
[02:03.41] From the local convenience store
[02:07.03] A photo of Paris at night
[02:09.64] The Eiffel tower in lights
[02:12.20] An unsatisfied looking debutant
[02:17.57] Flip side read "je t'amie mon amour"
[02:23.91] Paris, France
[02:27.91] Don't you forget about your past, girl
[02:32.94] Don't you forget about the streets
[02:38.22] Don't you forget about the cold air
[02:41.40] When you're lying on that beach
[02:48.59] She's scared this back road has a dead end
[02:54.06] And that he won't fly her to the moon
[02:59.27] "Well, just sit tight, babe,
[03:01.38] We're gonna be in Mexico real soon
[03:06.31] So just sit there and don't say another word
[03:10.62] Before I go and hurt someone
[03:13.22] Before I go and take this gun
[03:16.66] And hurt someone
[03:20.42] I'll hurt someone"
