Now the parking lot is empty
Everyone\u2019s gone someplace
I pick you up and in the trunk I\u2019ve packed
A cooler and a 2-day suitcase
Cause there\u2019s a place we like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city limit we\u2019re singing
And your hand\u2019s upon my knee<\/P>
\n


\n

So we\u2019re okay; we\u2019re fine
Baby I\u2019m here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I\u2019m stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We\u2019ll look at them together then we\u2019ll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that\u2019s true
Multiply life by the power of two<\/P><\/BLOCKQUOTE>

You know the things that I am afraid of
I\u2019m not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It\u2019s that we loved each other well
Because I\u2019ve seen the shadows of so many people
Trying on the treasures of youth
But a road that fancy and fast
Ends in a fatal crash
And I\u2019m glad we got off
To tell you the truth<\/P>
\n


\n

Cause we\u2019re okay; we\u2019re fine
Baby I\u2019m here to stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts from your head
I\u2019m stronger than the monster beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
We\u2019ll look at them together then we\u2019ll take them apart
Adding up the total of a love that\u2019s true
Multiply life by the power of two<\/P>

All the shiny little trinkets of temptation
(make new friends)
Something new instead of something old
(but keep the old)
All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface
(but remember what is gold)
And it\u2019s fools gold
(what is gold)
Fools gold
(what is gold)
Fools gold<\/P><\/BLOCKQUOTE><\/BLOCKQUOTE>

Now we\u2019re talking about a difficult thing
Your eyes are getting wet
But I took us for better and I took us for worse
Don\u2019t you ever forget it
Now the steel bars between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
The closer I\u2019m bound in love to you
The closer I am to free<\/P>

Smarter than the tricks played on your heart
