Black Pepper

  • I don't want to wish that we were younger
    Not soon before I feel that hunger
    No, Heaven can't wait much longer
    Show me that you can be stronger

    Lay me down in the grassy hill
    Red rover in the icy chill
    Blood shivers, but we'll take those pills
    Living for the thrill

    And it felt like Heaven and Earth with the stars aligned
    Take me with the salt, I can make you mine
    In the cold winter, I can be your brine
    Take me down the highway line

    Sweet and sour at the Tastee Freez
    Their black pepper always makes you sneeze
    Worn denim with your scraped up knees
    Baby, throw away your keys

    'Cause we're too young to die this hard
    Too close to be this far
    It doesn't matter where we are
    Just stop the car

    Grab your Jones and we'll run through town
    Heads up when the lights go down
    Nobody's gonna make us frown
    Just covered in the sound

    Of the real life
    In the warm night
    In a small town, everything's gone right
    Like an old dream
    On the big screen
    We'll be eating cherry pie under cold ice cream

    And we're never going home
    Just you and I alone

    So put on your baby blue jeans
    Overlook the hole in the front door screen
    I found a spot for you right next to me
    On the front porch swing

    And we're never going home
    Never going home
