Days Of Thunder

(album: Familiar Stranger - 2008)

Yeah yeah
I had a six pack of beer in the bushes
the weekend I turned 18
I snuck out the back while my mom and dad
watched Johnny Carson on TV

Well I picked her up at the end of the road
A red bandana in her hair
I turned the radio up in that old Datsun truck
And drove off to God knows where

Those were the days of thunder
that was a magic summer
Young, dumb, and full of wonder
thinking it would last forever

Love struck like a bolt of lightning
So strong and so exciting
rainy nights I still remember
Those days of thunder

Over 90 miles an hour down a two lane road
with just one hand on the wheel
the other one wrapped around her body
And I found out how freedom feels

Those were the days of thunder
that was a magic summer
Young, dumb, and full of wonder
thinking it would last forever

Love struck like a bolt of lightning
So strong and so exciting
rainy nights I still remember
Those days of thunder

We were moving so fast
left foot on the gas
And we never looked back

Those were the days of thunder
that was a magic summer
Young, dumb, and full of wonder
thinking it would last forever

Love struck like a bolt of lightning
So strong and so exciting
rainy nights I still remember
Those days of thunder
