on the edge of a knife

I. Paradise

Boy:
I remember every little thing/ As if it happened only yesterday/ Parking by the lake/ And there was not another car in sight/ And I never had a girl/ Looking any better than you did/And all the kids at school/ They were wishing they were me that night/ And now our bodies are oh so close and tight/ It never felt so good, it never felt so right/And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife/ C'mon! Hold on tight!/ C'mon! Hold on tight!/ Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night/ I can see paradise by the dashboard light

Girl:
Ain't no doubt about it/ We were doubly blessed/ Cause we were barely seventeen/ And we were barely dressed/ Ain't no doubt about it/ Baby got to go and shout it/ Ain't no doubt about it/ We were doubly blessed

Boy:
Cause we were barely seventeen/ And we were barely dressed/ Baby doncha hear my heart/You got it drowning out the radio/ I've been waiting so long/ For you to come along and have some fun/ And I gotta let ya know/ No you're never gonna regret it/ So open up your eyes I got a big surprise/ It'll feel all right/Well I wanna make your motor run/ And now our bodies are oh so close and tight/ It never felt so good, it never felt so right/And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife/ C'mon! Hold on tight!/ C'mon! Hold on tight!/ Though it's cold and lonley in the deep dark night/ I can see paradise by the dashboard light/ Paradise by the dashboard light/ You got to do what you can/ And let Mother Nature do the rest/ Ain't no doubt about it/ We were doubly blessed/ Cause we were barely seventeen/ And we were barely--/ We're gonna go all the way tonight/ We're gonna go allt he way/An tonight's the night...

Radio Broadcast:
Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker/ going here, two down, nobody on, no score,/ bottom of the ninth, there's the wind-up and/ there it is, a line shot up the middle, look/ at him go. This boy can really fly!/ He's rounding first and really turning it on/ now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna/ try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center,/ and here comes the throw, and what a throw!/ He's gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he's out!/ No, wait, safe--safe at second base, this kid really/ makes things happen out there./ Batter steps up to the plate, here's the pitch--/ he's going, and what a jump he's got, he's trying/ for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt--/ safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!/ He's taking a pretty big lead out there, almost/ daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher/ glance over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted/ down the third base line, the suicide squeeze in on!/ Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close,/ here's the throw, there's the play at the plate,/ holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!

II. Let Me Sleep On It

Girl:
Stop right there!/ I gotta know right now!/ Before we go any further--!/ Do you love me?/ Will you love me forever?/ Do you need me?/ Will you never leave me?/Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?/ Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?/ Do you love me!?/ Will you love me forever!?/ Do you need me!?/ Will you never leave me!?/ Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life!?/ Will you take me away and will you make me your wife!?/ I gotta know right now/ Before we go any further/ Do you love me!!!?/ Will you love me forever!!!?

Boy:
Let me sleep on it/ Baby, baby let me sleep on it/ Let me sleep on it/ And I'll give you my answer in the morning/ Let me sleep on it/ Baby, baby let me sleep on it/ Let me sleep on it/ And I'll give you my answer in the morning/ Let me sleep on it/ Baby, baby let me sleep on it/ Let me sleep on it/ And I'll give you my answer in the morning

Girl:
I gotta know right now!/ Do you love me?/ Will you love me forever?/ Do you need me?/ Will you never leave me?/ Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?/ Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?/ I gotta know right now!/ Before we go any further/ Do you love me?/ And will you love me forever?

Boy:
Let me sleep on it/ Baby, baby let me sleep on it/ Let me sleep on it/ And I'll give you my answer in the morning/ Let me sleep on it!!!

Girl:
Will you love me forever?

Boy:
Let me sleep on it!!!

Girl:
Will you love me forever!!!

III. Praying for the End of Time

Boy:
I couldn't take it any longer/ Lord I was crazed/ And when the feeling came upon me/ Like a tidal wave/ I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave/ That I would love you to the end of time/ I swore that I would love you to the end of time!

So now I'm praying for the end of time/ To hurry up and arrive/ Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you/ I don't think that I can really survive/ I'll never break my promise or forget my vow/ But God only knows what I can do right now/ I'm praying for the end of time/ It's all that I can do/ Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!!!

Boy:
It was long ago and it was far away/ and it was so much better than it is today

Girl:
It never felt so good/ It never felt so right/ And we were glowing like/ A metal on the edge of a knife

Wel.
Naast de kwestie. Maar wat een heerlijk nummer om op te dansen.
Met twee.
