Don't hold it back (don't get it started). We can take a ride all night... Dreamers asleep in old sedan backseats--it's a miracle you know, it's a miracle you know. The cool evening sky, a long untroubled day: all beginnings are wonderful, all beginnings are wonderful...
"Go!" I swear (I'll admit it when I see him off). All the while I was kindly there, lopsided when his first shot failed.

(Tell me what became of your family that I'm surprised we don't see anymore I'm surprised we don't speak anymore DON'T YOU TRY I can see from your face you've been crying tonight with the world on your shoulders boy make sure you tumble forth make sure you tumble forth)
"When I can't sleep, I stand outside. I've got a Detroit yard, but twice as wide." I've got a Detroit yard, but twice the pride. Keep driving, keep driving, keep driving...

Say goodbye for the summer...
("Don't hold it back.")
("Don't get me started.")
