Hell of a View

I was no daddy's dream

Was not your mama's prayer

But I was your first and your last ticket out of there

I caught your wings on fire

When I smoked my Bronco tires

Out of that town

I'm good at rollin' dice

No good at standing still

You liked the thought of chasin'

Life instead of dollar bills

We were livin' wreckless

Nothin' to catch us, baby, but the ground

This ain't for everybody

Toes hanging off the ledge

Like we got nothin' to lose

Ain't always heaven, baby

This livin' on the edge

You holdin' me holdin' you

It's a hell of a view

I paint with my old Gibson

You paint your purple sky

This town's our canvas, baby

Let's paint it red tonight

Go out like shootin' stars

Chasin' what's in our hearts into the blue (Into the blue)

This ain't for everybody

Toes hanging off the ledge

Like we got nothin' to lose

Ain't always heaven, baby

This livin' on the edge

You holdin' me holdin' you

It's a hell of a view

Hell of a view

We ain't for everybody

Toes hanging off a ledge

Like we got nothin', we got nothin' to lose

Ain't always heaven, baby

This livin' on the edge

You holdin' me holdin' you

It's a hell of a view

Hell of a view

Hell of a view

Hell of a view
