She had one little promise
And for one desperate moment there
With lots of places to run to
She stood alone on the balcony
Somewhere else
She could hear the cars roll by
Crashing on the beach
It was kind of cold that night
Oh yeah, all right
She couldn't help thinking that
Make it last all night
There was a little more to life
Out on four forty one like waves
She was gonna keep
And if she had to die tryin'
That's so close, is still so far out of reach
God, it's so painful when something
Make it last all night
Oh yeah, all right
She crept back in her memory
After all it was a great big world
She was an American girl
Take it easy baby
Take it easy baby
