It's hotter than hell but don't it make for a sunset
Maybe I'm late and there's nothing left
I oughta take what I can get
The chemical trails are pointing the way to your house
Maybe I'm not what you dream about
But I'm here and I'm right now, right now
It's all beginning, beginning to end
I'd give up the rest just to see you again tonight
Tonight
Driving tonight on top of the New Madrid faultline
Rearview's shaking the skyline
It's only a matter of (only a matter of)
The song of the summer's tracking the time to your house
Maybe we're not what they sing about
But we're here right now, right now
Nuclear sky, lavender skin
I'd give what's left just to hold you again tonight
Tonight
Blind in the turns that lead the way to your house
I'm on fire in orchid South
I'm here and I'm right now, screaming out
I swear to the stars, I swear to the street
I swear to the eyelash caught on your cheek
To The Big One, to the bonfire, the phone if it rings
Everything else means nothing to me tonight
Tonight
