My Anthem

Little world, little town, on a road, in a car Going nowhere fast Just a girl with a boy who never been that far He could never go back I was tired of talking about going to college somewhere You were tired of your parents fighting downstairs We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth You weren't just a prayer, you were my salvation You weren't just my first, you were my education You weren't just a song on the radio You were my solid gold centerfold, daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancing We ain't never growing old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem In a house, in a room with a poster on a wall Looking for a way out In a yard, in a dark, climb the fence just to fall Thought that's what love was about Even when you had to put my jacket abound your shoulders We were pretending that the summer wasn't over We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth You weren't just a prayer, you were my salvation You weren't just my first, you were my education You weren't just a song on the radio You were my solid gold centerfold, daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancing We ain't never growing old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem You were the backbeat of freedom The front row kind of feeling Just what I needed to hear The kind you wanna sing along Baby, with your blue jeans on We thought we could outrun our youth You and me could outrun the truth You weren't just a prayer, you were my salvation You weren't just my first, you were my education You weren't just a song on the radio You were my solid gold, centerfold, daddy hates my rock and roll Back seat dancing We ain't never growing old anthem Yeah, you were my anthem The kind you wanna sing along The kind you wanna sing along
