Meat Loaf, Ellen Foley - Paradise by the Dashboard Light lyrics

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!
Well c'mon! Hold on tight!

Though 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 don'tcha 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
And I gotta let you know, no
You 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!
Well 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
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

OK, 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, here's the throw
Here's the play at the plate
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 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
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
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
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
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? (Let me sleep on it)
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) let me sleep on it
(Do you love me? Will you love me forever?)
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
(Do you need me? Will you never leave me?)
Well, let me sleep on it
(Will you make me so happy for
The rest of my life?)
I'll give you an answer
In the morning, morning
I'll tell you in the morning
(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?)

I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
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!

Well, it was long ago and it was far away
And it was so much better than it is today
Well, it was long ago and it was far away
(It never felt so good)
And it was so much better than it is today
(It never felt so right)
It was long ago and it was far away
(And we were glowing like)
And it was so much better than it is today
(The metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away
(It never felt so good)
And it was so much better than it is today
(It never felt so right)
It was long ago and it was far away
(And we were glowing like)
And it was so much better than it is today
(The metal on the edge of a knife)
It was long ago and it was far away
(It never felt so good)
And it was so much better than it is today
(It never felt so right)
It was long ago and it was far away
(And we were glowing like)
And it was so much better than it is today
(The metal on the edge of a knife)
