Crimson Moon

Homecoming queen about to turn eighteen

Just a couple months younger than

That wannabe James Dean

She can't wait, just say when

She ain't gonna leave a note

She ain't gonna tell a friend

He smelled the rain on the blacktop

She heard the banshee in the wind

Hey hey hey darling please

Let's put these hard times in the breeze

Let's go find a little breathing room

Bathed in the light of a crimson moon

He was named after the hurricane

Blew through in '79 and he did just about the same

Ain't no point, no way of living it down

Standing at the crossroads of this sideways one light town

Screen door closed is the only sound she made

She climbs on and wraps her hands around his waist

Hey hey hey darling please

Let's put these hard times in the breeze

Let's go find a little breathing room

Bathed in the light of a crimson moon

Nothing worse than the hell left behind

As two lost souls they go running off into the night

They felt the fire of running on two wheels

If they don't stop tonight Lord knows they never will

Hey hey hey darling please

Let's put these hard times in the breeze

Let's go find a little breathing room

Bathed in the light of a crimson moon
