Well that big red sun was sinking slow That rising hat a haunting glow I could see those heat waves rising off the ground We were sitting on go at that old stop sign Headlights shining on the county line It was do or die, had to get out of that town Well honey you said run We were so young Trying to set the world on fire Turn the key and spark the wire Chasing down a feeling, running on desire The future was an open road, Gone in a cloud of smoke Leaving a trail of flames behind those tires Just you and me girl, setting the world on fire Yeah we were setting the world on fire We were blazing down the road like Kerouac No time to stop and cover our tracks We were too damn hot for any one town to hold Yeah we burned through a few good years Then you started looking back in that rear view mirror Right outside of Reno the trail got cold You said you'd had enough, of this rambling love Songtexte Trying to set the world on fire Turn the key and spark the wire Chasing down a feeling, running on desire The future was an open road, Gone in a cloud of smoke Leaving a trail of flames behind those tires For a while there girl we were setting the world on fire Pulling out a Lucky Strike, bout to head west Riding off into God's sunset It's times like this I always think of you But honey you know me, I'll always be Trying to set the world on fire Turn the key and spark the wire Chasing down a feeling, running on desire The future is an open road, Gone in a cloud of smoke Leaving a trail of flames behind these tires See I'm out here girl, setting the world on fire I'm setting the world on fire Yeah I'm setting the world on fire Aus Songtexte Mania
