Paradise By the Dashboard Light - Meat Loaf

Well, 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 who 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 Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife Come on, hold tight Come on, hold tight Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night I can see paradise by the dashboard light Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night (In the deep dark night) Paradise by the dashboard light We're gonna go all the way tonight We're gonna go all the way, and tonight's the night We're gonna go all the way tonight We're gonna go all the way, and tonight's the night We're gonna go all the way tonight We're gonna go all the way, and tonight's the night We're gonna go all the way tonight We're gonna go all the way, and tonight's the night 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, will you make me your wife? Let me sleep on it (sleep on it) Baby, baby, let me sleep on it (sleep on it) Let me sleep on it I'll give you an answer in the morning I gotta know right now Do you love me? (Do you, do you love me?) Will you love me forever? Do you need me? (Do you, do you need me?) Will you never leave me? Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? (Do you never leave me?) Will you take me away, and will you make me your wife? (Do you, do you?) Do you love me, and will you love me forever? Let me sleep on it Will you love me forever? Let me sleep on it Will you love me forever? 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 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 (all that I can do) Prayin' for the end of time So I can end my time with you (you, yeah) It was long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good, it never felt so right) And it was so much better than it is today (And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife) It was long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good, it never felt so right) And it was so much better than it is today (And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife) It was long ago and it was far away (It never felt so good, it never felt so right) And it was so much better than it is today (And we were glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife) Felt so right Felt so good Paradise (yeah)

(Lets do this!) Sometimes times get tough but it's how you rise above I can't describe the feeling but with help comes healing When life gets you down, and strength leaves without a sound And pain becomes your only friend, it's here you meet an end But I'm here and I care No more fear, I swear It's okay to not feel alright Today you and I will fight I'm not done, I can see the morning sun And you had your fun, but my life has just begun I've got the cuts, bruises, and holes in the wall But it's over and you're done you can't control my life at all And you won't be back and you'll never cause me more pain Cause I love who I am and I'll always dance in the rain But I'm here and empowered These are my finest hours It's okay to not feel alright Today you and I will fight I'm not done, I can see the morning sun And you had your fun but my life has just begun Oh! I'm here and I, I care No more fear, I, I swear Even in the darkest of tunnels There's always, always a light Always a light

We laughed and joked in the cab of his truck Just my brother and me The night before he shipped out Overseas A leather-neck, Jarhead Marine He said "the Radiator leaks, And the timing-belt is worn, But the Heart and Soul of this old beat up truck, Is The Dashboard." "It's seen alot of tan legs, Got a kick ass radio Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll. Got a .38 bullet hole, courtesy of Kate Tillman's dad, Alot of scotch tape marks from holding timeless photo graphs." He said "If I don't come back, You can have this Ford, Just tape a picture of me, on the Dashboard." He said "The paint is peeling off, It's got dents in both the doors, If something happens to me don't hang a for-sale sign above the Dashboard." "It's seen alot of tan legs, Got a kick ass radio Heard alot of singing along with some country songs, and rock and roll.

With all of my might, With all of my might I do this. It's a waste of my time to pursue this. I'm so full of self-indulgence to think that you'd like this song. Jot it down and I stuck it in the basement, Underneath the living room floor. For some reason I don't think I'm gonna make it. For some reason I don't think about it anymore. Get so bored with the radio, bored with the video. You've got to make a _______, just to let'em know. ______________________________________________ With all of my might, With all of my might I do this. It's a waste of my time to pursue this. I'm so fucked self-indulgent to think you'd like this song.
