We were young we were barely 19 |
[00:18.61] |
Going places that we have never seen |
[00:24.29] |
So I packed a flashlight and the camera |
[00:30.36] |
2,000 miles to California |
[00:33.85] |
. |
[00:36.37] |
We packed our clothes in paper bags |
[00:42.17] |
We made mix tapes of our favorite bands |
[00:48.23] |
I remember my father in the driveway |
[00:51.23] |
|
[00:54.02] |
I could tell that he was putting on his brave face for me |
[00:58.65] |
. |
[00:58.90] |
As we drove far away |
[01:02.03] |
Stayed any place for free |
[01:05.21] |
I picked up a nickel on the train tracks |
[01:10.58] |
We had songs we liked to sing |
[01:13.96] |
And we tape recorded things |
[01:16.58] |
Tied ribbons round the trees to find our way back |
[01:23.95] |
. |
[01:29.57] |
We stopped in every small town we came across |
[01:35.57] |
We slept in motel parking lots |
[01:41.26] |
I remember Montana and the big sky |
[01:47.20] |
I remember how she stood there with her arms held open wide |
[01:51.89] |
. |
[01:52.14] |
As we drove far away |
[01:55.26] |
Stayed any place for free |
[01:58.39] |
We pulled over when we saw the sunflowers |
[02:03.69] |
And we both carved our names |
[02:07.26] |
In a fence along the way |
[02:10.32] |
And Sharon honked the horn at every state line |
[02:15.57] |
. |
[02:33.93] |
We were young and we, were just beginning our lives |
[02:40.12] |
Like 2 birds set free for the first time |
[02:45.37] |
Not a penny to our names |
[02:48.87] |
And our dresses were handmade |
[02:51.51] |
We picked flowers and sage |
[02:54.26] |
And dried them in |
[02:56.39] |
The dashboard of the car |
