| The skies were pure and the fields were green | |
| And the sun was brighter than it's ever been | |
| When I grew up with my best friend Kenny | |
| We were close as any brothers than you ever knew | |
| It was always summer and the future called | |
| We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all | |
| And there was so much left to dream and so much time to make it real | |
| But I can still recall the sting of all the tears when he was gone | |
| They said he crashed and burned | |
| I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young | |
| We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune | |
| We got in trouble but we sure got around | |
| There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark | |
| I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground | |
| But it was long ago and it was far away, oh God it seems so very far | |
| And if life is just a highway, then the soul is just a car | |
| And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are | |
| And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are | |
| And when the sun descended and the night arose | |
| I heard my father cursing everyone he knows | |
| He was dangerous and drunk and defeated | |
| And corroded by failure and envy and hate | |
| There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze | |
| Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees | |
| And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again and again and again | |
| I know I still believe he'd never let me leave, I had to run away alone | |
| So many threats and fears, so many wasted years before my life became my own | |
| And though the nightmares should be over | |
| Some of the terrors are still intact | |
| I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice | |
| And then he grabs me from behind and then he pulls me back | |
| There was a beauty living on the edge of town | |
| And she always put the top up and the hammer down | |
| And she taught me everything I'll ever know | |
| About the mystery and the muscle of love | |
| The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow | |
| I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo | |
| And the signs along the highway all said, Caution! Kids At Play! | |
| Those were the rights of spring and we did everything | |
| There was salvation every night | |
| We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn | |
| But everything we tried was right | |
| She used her body just like a bandage | |
| She used my body just like a wound | |
| I'll probably never know where she disappeared | |
| But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now | |
| Just like an angel rising up from a tomb | |
| And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are | |
| And objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are | |
| She used her body just like a bandage | |
| She used my body just like a wound | |
| I'll probably never know where she disappeared | |
| But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now |
