my girl
is in her own world
is in her own clothes
she's got some fashion
when the boys look
and the girls look
I know they're thinkin'
what I'm thinkin' too, baby.
my girl
likes to philosophize
think it all through
for a solution
her personality
is one of a kind
ya, my girl
she's the only girl in my mind
my girl
well she's a knock-out
it only takes one
look from my girl
when the boys look
and the girls stare
i know they're thinkin'
uh, what are they thinkin', baby?
I've been a wide open mind
for far too long now
people don't tell you the cost
and if you're just gonna tell me that
this black ice is gonna put you in the ground
then I'm not one to listen.
You've often said that you despise it here
and you want to leave
you just won't let yourself
be moved around
you might as well just leave your head wide open
all the slush and the fog don't matter.
Didn't catch the forecast but I caught a cold
swimming over to your house in the slush n' snow.
I see a snow squall comin' in
and our coffee is our coal to our heated conversation.

If you wanted to see the end
of the tunnel
it is just beginning
so you woke up in chain mail
in this day and age
you haven't got a choice
so you fought
and you fought
and you fought
and you fought
your way into
another day and age
in this one
you're 21
you didn't have a lotta fun
now you're gonna be 22
and everybody wants you to hold
a mirror up to the mirror that
they hold up to their friends
mirror on mirror on mirror on mirror on mirror
but it's just beginning
so you fought
and you fought
and you fought
and you fought
your way into
another day and age
everybody wants you
you hold a mirror up to their's
in this day and age you haven't got a choice
well he was just tryin'
to make it abroad
and he had no fear
just a thrill for the chase
and he was one of the few
willing to take that risk
and now he's gone
and now he's gone
when he looked down a hill
all he saw was a race
nothin' but a track
that could bring him some gold
and like all before
ya, he pushed so hard
and now he's gone
and it's just sad to think that
now he is a hero though
nobody knows his name
he never had the chance to show
what makes him so great
what makes him so great
well everyone's in shock
and their looking for blame
and there's at least one boy
he's afraid to go on
cuz when they look down that track
and they think of this face
they know he's gone
they know he's gone
and it's just sad to think that
now he is a hero though
nobody knows his name
he never had the chance to show
what makes him so great
what makes him so great
