	How’d I ever know you Quite like I was told to? Make sure you love each other nice now Oh, I was hypnotized Caught up in the northern lights Driving around in circles Singin’ hey now What was that sound? Lighting a match Just to f-freak you out Oo, then on the other side I saw fifty yellow lines Pushing up against the window And with one almighty lightning strike The Great Lake rose up behind Said, “Baby, you best turn around” So I went back I went back to the shore To follow Her pathway Forevermore Crushin’ the blades, great freight train Make the wind go away And if that mockingbird don’t sing Watch her do the twist again And if she’s twisted up too tight Let the dawn cut through the night And if that day do slowly break Make your way down to the lake
