I was born in the heart of a wild wood dream
Right in the middle of the universe to me
That's where we fixed up an old '75 Ford Transit
With paint buckets of neon green
And a cassette player
And one hot summer night back in '93
We rolled out of that town in a house on wheels
With a sluggish shift, a rusty key
But a song in our hearts, the soul of a hippie
Me in that blue suede jacket
Up on the velvet seat
Close to the speaker
Leaned into the backbeat
The melodies had me flying
'Til that final note rang out
Fading like the sunset into the diamond sky
And I would go back in a heartbeat
To that magic world I found
If I could flip the cassette
Flip the cassette around

I would sneak out in the rain
Turn it up just to feel the blues
And let time fly by across the Scarlett moon
Out there in the wild, wild woods
You dream until the dream becomes your truth
They said daydream, work on your wings
Fly anywhere that your soul wants to be
I didn't know then I would give anything
If I could go back to '93 again
To me in that blue suede jacket
Up on the velvet seat
Close to the speaker
Leaned into the backbeat
The melodies had me flying
'Til that final note rang out
Fading like the sunset into the diamond sky
And I would go back in a heartbeat
To that magic world I found
If I could flip the cassette
If I could flip the cassette around
