Paradise by the dashboard light

by Meatloaf

Well, I remember every little thing

As if it happened only yesterday

Parking by the lake

And there was not another car in sight

And I never had a girl

Looking any better than you did

And all the kids at school

They were wishing they

were me that night

And now our bodies are

oh so close and tight

It never felt so good,

it never felt so right

And we're glowing like the

metal on the edge of a knife

Glowing like the metal

on the edge of a knife

Come on, hold on tight

Well come on, hold on tight

Though it's cold and lonely

in the deep dark night

I can see paradise

by the dashboard light

Ain't no doubt about it

we were doubly blessed

'Cause we were barely seventeen

and we were barely dressed

Ain't no doubt about it

Babe, ya got to go and shout it

Ain't no doubt about it

We were doubly blessed

'Cause we were barely seventeen

And we were barely dressed

Baby, don't you hear my heart

You got it drownin' out the radio

I've been waitin' so long

For you to come along and have some fun

Well I gotta let you know

No, you're never gonna regret it

So open up your eyes,

I got a big surprise

It'll feel all right

Well, I wanna make your motor run

And now our bodies

are oh, so close and tight

It never felt so good,

it never felt so right

And we're glowin' like the

metal on the edge of a knife

Glowin' like the metal

on the edge of a knife

Come on, hold on tight

Well, come on, hold on tight

Though it's cold and lonely

in the deep dark night

I can see paradise

by the dashboard light

Though it's cold and lonely

in the deep dark night

Paradise by the dashboard light

You got to do what you can

And let Mother Nature do the rest

Ain't no doubt about it

We were doubly blessed

'Cause we were barely seventeen

And we were barely

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way

And tonight's the night

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way

And tonight's the night

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way

And tonight's the night

We're gonna go all the way tonight

We're gonna go all the way

And tonight's the night

Let me sleep on it

Will you love me forever

Let me sleep on it

Will you love me forever

I couldn't take it any longer

Lord, I was crazed

And when the feelin' came

upon me like a tidal wave

I started swearin' to my god

And on my mother's grave

That I would love you

'till the end of time

I swore I would love you

'till the end of time

So now I'm prayin' for the end of time

To hurry up and arrive

'Cause if I gotta spend

another minute with you

I don't think that I can really survive

I'll never break my promise

or forget my vow

But God only knows

what I can do right now

Prayin' for the end of time

It's all that I can do (ooh, ooh)

Prayin' for the end of time

So I can end my time with you

It was long ago

and it was far away,

and it was so much

better than it is today.

Well it was long ago

and it was far away,

(It never felt so good,)

and it was so much

(it never felt so right)

better than it is today.

(And we were glowin' like the)

Well it was long ago

(metal on the edge of a knife.)

and it was far away,

(It never felt so good,)

and it was so much

(it never felt so right)

better than it is today.

(And we were glowin' like the

metal on the edge of a knife.)
