Lyrics

She's keeping a secret
burning like a cigarette
She's spending her evenings
looking back on her regrets

I know you've been mistreated
I can feel it in your voice
You put that bottle to your lips
thats no one elses choice

Now I'm driving the freeway
90's just not fast enough
Living ain't easy
but I swear I'll make it up

I'll treat you like your perfect
because I've always known you are
From the moment I first talked to you
inside my sister's car
I want to give the world to you
and make your dreams come true
My life would be complete if I could
live it here with you

She is my firecracker
can't stop thinking about her
burns hot like dynamite
She makes me feel alright

So tell me your secret
because I love to hear you talk
I'll sing it acoustic
but I swear I'll make it rock
