Little ditty about Jack and Diane Two American kids growin' up in the heartland Jackie gonna be a football star Diane debutante backseat of Jackie's car
Well there's a little boy waiting at the counter of the corner shop He's been waiting down there, waiting half the day, They never ever see him from the top
Dark in the city, night is a wire Steam in the subway, earth is a fire Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do Woman you want me, give me a sign And catch my breathing even closer behind Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
Wrapped around each other Trying so hard to stay warm That first cold winter together Lying in each others arms Watching those old movies Falling in love so desperately Honey, I was your hero And you were my leading lady
Somewhere in a lonely hotel room there’s a guy starting to realize That eternal fate has turned it's back on him It's two a.m. It's two a.m. the fear has gone I'm sitting here waitin' the gun still warm Maybe my connection is tired of taken chances
Standing there alone, the ship is waiting. All systems are go. "Are you sure?" Control is not convinced, but the computer has the evidence. No need to abort. The countdown starts.
Get up, get up, get up, get up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up Ooh baby, now let's get down tonight Baby I'm hot just like an oven I need some lovin' And baby, I can't hold it much longer It's getting stronger and stronger
I never knew there'd come a day When I'd be sayin' to you "Don't let this good love slip away Now that we know that it's true." Don't, don't you know the kind of man I am No, said I'd never fall in love again But it's real and the feeling comes shining through.
Love come down No sleep last night Been dreaming of you Please hold me tight Cause I can't help the way that I feel I just can't help the way that I feel
