You sit in class
But your mind is with the ocean tides
Summer break in the turn of 1969
Short dress
Long hair
White shirt open
Blowing in the breeze
Warm days
Out late
Race cars
Wild kids
Livin' as we please
You're sneakin' out
Yeah you're climbin' down that double house
I wait outside and you take the smoke from out my mouth
Let's start this early
Change things darlin'
Revolution
Young things smilin'
Hearts rewinding
Right in front of me
Cause that's what kids do in the dark
As we're tearin' up the park
The good kids always do what's right
The bad ones always end up high
I see an open light in you
Tell me
Do you see that too
I should have seen it from the start
We are the bad kids in the dark
Your record on
Yeah you're smokin' out your bedroom window
Favourite song
Bathed in riches when you are a widow
Love grows
Hair blows
Here goes nothin'
And I'm wide awake
Cause that's what kids do in the dark
As we're tearin' up the park
The good kids always do what's right
The bad ones always end up high
I see an open light in you
Tell me
Do you see that too
I should have seen it from the start
We are the bad kids in the dark
To when I met you
For the first time
In that old diner
Snuck into parties
Never early
I remember
I'll be your harold
You'll be my maude
I was thinking
God
'Cause that's what kids do in the dark
As we're tearin' up the park
The good kids always do what's right
The bad ones always end up high
I see an open light in you
Tell me
Do you see that too
I should have seen it from the start
We are the bad kids in the dark
We are the bad kids in the dark
