Paradise By The Dashboard Light Lyrics - So You Think You Can Dance

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 

C'mon, hold on tight 

Oh, c'mon, hold on tight 

Thought 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, baby, 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, doncha hear my heart you got it drowning out the radio 

I've been waiting 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 glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife 

Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife 

C'mon, hold on tight 

Oh, c'mon, 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 

I can see 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 

Okay, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker going here 

Two down, nobody on, no score, bottom of the ninth 

There's the windup, and there it is, a line shot up the middle 

Look at him go, this boy can really fly, he's rounding first and really 

Turning it on now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna try for 

Second, the ball is bobbled out in center, and here comes the 

Throw, and what a throw! He's gonna slide in head first, here he 

Comes, he's out! No, wait, safe, safe at second base, this kid 

Really makes things happen out there, batter steps up to the 

Plate, here's the pitch, he's going, and what a jump he's got! 

He's trying for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt-safe at 

Third! Holy cow, stolen base! He's taking a pretty big lead out 

There, almost daring him to try and pick him off, the pitcher 

Glances over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted down the third 

Base line, the suicide squeeze is on, here he comes, squeeze 

Play, it's gonna be close, holy cow, I think he's gonna make it 

Stop right there! I gotta know right now 

Before we go any further do you love me? 

Will you love me forever? Do you need me? 

Will you never leave me? 

Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? 

Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? 

Do you love me? Will you love me forever? 

Do you need me? Will you never leave me? 

Will you make me happy for the rest of my life? 

Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? 

I gotta know right now before we go any further 

Do you love me? Will you love me forever? 

Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it 

Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning 

Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it 

Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning 

Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it 

Let me sleep on it and I'll give you an answer in the morning 

I gotta know right now, do you love me? 

Will you love me forever? Do you need me? 

Will you never leave me? 

Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? 

Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? 

I gotta know right now before we go any further 

Do you love me? And will you love me forever? 

What's it gonna be, boy? Come on 

I can wait all night 

What's it gonna be, boy? Yes or no 

What's it gonna be, boy? Yes or no 

Let me sleep on it, baby, baby, let me sleep on it 

Well, let me sleep on it, I'll give you an answer in the morning 

I gotta know right now, do you love me? 

Will you love me forever? Do you need me? 

Will you never leave me? 

Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life? 

Will you take me away and will you make me your wife? 

I gotta know right now before we go any further 

Do you love me? Will you love me forever? 

Let me sleep on it 

Will you love me forever? 

Let me sleep on it 

Will you love me forever? 

Praying for the end of time, Lord, I was crazed 

And when the feeling came upon me like a tidal wave 

I started swearing to my God and on my mother's grave 

That I would love you to the end of time 

I swore that I would love you to the end of time 

So now I'm praying 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 

I'm praying for the end of time, It's all that I can do 

Praying 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 that it is today 

When it was long ago and it was far away 

And it was so much better that it is today 

It was long ago and it was far away 

And it was so much better that it is today 

When it was long ago and it was far away 

And it was so much better that it is today 

It was long ago and it was far away 

And it was so much better that it is today 

When it was long ago and it was far away 

And it was so much better that it is today 

It was long ago and it was far away
