Standin' by the door, checkin' my hair
Waitin' on you to take me nowhere
We were always lookin' for a rock n' roll saturday night
Sittin' all home with a radio station
Listen all night to hear my dedication
A song to tell the whole town you're mine (that's right)
We sing like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
Like nothing will ever change and we dance
Like time weren't really slipping through our hands
Oh, when you said I loved you, it mighta been low
But it sure sounded good at the time
Just a hand-me-down, a pontiac
Let's see how many friends we can? In the back
Saved all summer for a ticket on the front row (let's go)
Didn't have a plan and we ran outta money
Car broke down but it's still kinda funny
Cuz we hitched a ride with some hippy guy
And barely made it to the show and
We sing like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
Like nothing will ever change and we dance
Like time weren't really slipping through our hands
Made it back alive, made up a good lie
But it sure sounded good at the time
Aw, yeah, we did some wrong
We did it right
But it sure sounded so good at the time
You were mine, alright
Woaaah, well alright
And we sing like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing
Like nothing will ever change and we dance
Like time weren't really slipping through our hands
We thought we'd never say goodbye
But it sure sounded good at the time
