lyrics

I'll buy a map, you get the cash
Fill up the backseat with old tapes and magazines
I'll draw the dotted line, you stay awake and drive
We'll make love on the passenger side

Such a long way to go, and it's threatening to rain again
Will it soak us through?
I'm not sure we're waterproof

Been here before, flown down this interstate
Dug up our change for the toll booths and whiskey bars
No need to pick a town, just drive til the car breaks down
We'll buy postcards to prove what we found

Such a long way to go, and it's threatening to rain again
Will it soak us through?
I'm not sure we're waterproof

We could drive on forever, but when I watch you sleep
Miles of quilted and rocky terrain lie between you and me

I'll buy a map, you get the cash
Fill up the backseat with old tapes and magazines
We push away we try a new city on for size
Fix the roof but it's raining inside

Such a long way to go, and it's threatening to rain again
Will it soak us through?
I'm not sure we're waterproof
I don't think we're waterproof
