Lyrics

Well, I got us on a highway, I got us in a car
Got us going faster than we've ever gone before
I got us on a highway, I got us in a car
Got us going faster than we've ever gone before
But I know it ain't gonna last
For I know it ain't gonna last
When I see your eyes arrive
They explode like two bugs on glass
Far above the ocean, deep under the sea
There's a river running dry because of you and me
Far above the ocean, deep under the sea
There's a river running dry because of you and me
But I know it ain't gonna last
I know that it ain't gonna last
When I see your eyes arrive
They explode like two bugs on glass
She's a goddess on a highway, a goddess in a car
A goddess going faster than she's ever gone before
She's a goddess on the highway, a goddess in a car
A goddess going faster than she's ever gone before
But I know it ain't gonna last
I know that it ain't gonna last
When I see your eyes arrive
They explode like two bugs on glass
Oh I know that it ain't gonna last
I know that it ain't gonna last
I know it ain't gonna last
I know that it ain't gonna last
It ain't gonna last
It ain't gonna last
It ain't gonna last
It ain't gonna last
No
It ain't gonna last
(Thank you so much)
