[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"
