Well, I re-[D]member every little thing,
as if it happened only [G]yesterday.
[C]Parking by the lake,
and there was [G]not another car in [D]sight.
And I never had a girl,
Looking any better than [G]you did.
And all the [F#]kids at school,
They were [G]wishing they were [A]me that [D]night.
{c:Both}
And now our [Bb]bodies are [F]oh so [C]close and [D]tight,
It never [Bb]felt so [F]good, it never [C]felt so [D]right,
And we're [G]glowing like the [D]metal on the [A]edge of a [D]knife,
[G]Glowing like the [D]metal on the [A]edge of a [D]knife,
{c:Meat Loaf}
C'[G]mon! Hold on [D]tight!
C'[G]mon! Hold on [F]tight! [A]
{c:Both}
Though it's [G]cold and [A]lonely in the [D]deep [A]dark [G]night,
I can [D]see para-[Bm]dise by the [G]dash-[Em]board [D]light.
{c:Karla DeVito}
[G]Ain't no [A]doubt a-[D]bout it, we were [A]doubly [G]blessed,
'Cause we were [Em]barely seven-[G]teen,
and we were [Em]barely [D]dressed.
{c:Both}
[G]Ain't no [A]doubt a-[D]bout it,
[G]Baby, got to [A]go and [D]shout it,
[G]Ain't no [A]doubt a-[D]bout it, we were [A]doubly [G]blessed,
'Cause we were [Em]barely seven-[G]teen,
and we were [Em]barely [D]dressed.
{c:Meat Loaf (Karla: Ooh shop shop)}
Baby don'tcha hear my heart,

I've been [C]waiting so long,
for you to [G]come along and have some [D]fun
And I gotta let ya know,

So open [F#]up your eyes, I got a [G]big surprise,
it'll [E]feel all right,
well, I [A]wanna make your motor [D]run
{c:Both}
And now our [Bb]bodies are [F]oh so [C]close and [D]tight,

{c:Baseball announcer - spoken}
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 wind-up 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 in on!
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close.
Here's the throw, there's the play at the plate.
Holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!

I couldn't [F]take it any longer,
Lord, I was crazed
And when the [C]feeling came upon me,
like a [F]tidal wave
I started [C]swearing to my God and on my [G]mother's grave,
that I would [F]love you to the [G]end of [C]time, I swore
I would [F]love you to the [G]end of [C]time!
{c:Both}
So now I'm [C]praying for the [G]end of [C]time,
to [F]hurry up [G]and ar-[C]rive
Cause [C]if I gotta [G]spend another [Am]minute with you,
I don't [G]think that I can really survive
I'll never [F]break my promise or forget my vow,
{c:Meat Loaf}
But [C]God only knows what I can [G]do right now
{c:Both}
I'm [C]praying for the [G]end of [C]time,
It's all that I can [Am]do-oo-oo.
[C]Praying for the [G]end of [C]time,
So I can [F]end my [G]time with [C]you!

It was [F]long a-[C]go and it was [G]far a-[C]way, (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
And it was [F]so much [C]better than it [G]is to-[C]day (and we were glowing like a metal on the edge of a knife)
It was [F]long a-[C]go and it was [G]far a-[C]way, (it never felt so good, it never felt so right)
