Waiting in my motor outside your school
18 years old you were nobody's fool
you wanted to leave this hick town
head out west with hood right down
you had big dreams belly full of fire
beautiful woman a mans desire
all the world you wanted to see
and you wanted to do it with me
you wanted to see the bright lights
beach bum days and Hollywood nights
you wanted it all and wanted it today
you had the dream, wouldn't go away
so we drove down to the west coast
ate ice cream lived on tea and toast
sunny days it was great no doubt
everything changed when the money ran out
slept in the car under the stars
looked for work in the cafes and bars
in the end, we had to agree
this wasn't where we were meant to be
scraped together some dollars for gas
no good pretending to be some bad ass
it's time for us to be moving on
living on dreams til they're all gone
