suit and tie and the stock exchange oh
sun rises over the office window
style basking in the noon day light
convertable cars to fast to drive
smell coffee and jazz from the next street lamp oh
looking at you from a friends old pinto
we wait for the evening and grab your coat
and leave for the summer

put a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side
its taken all this time to see my own reflection

I'm finding myself falling back to the big screen
where hit movie stars breathe lipstick and sun screen
but shadows of things in the green glow dashlight
lead to the summer

put a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side
it's taken all this time, it's taken all my life, it's taken all this time
to see my own reflection

wait for the evening and grab your coat
I'll take you along

with a beat in the car let it ride let it take you home
turn your face from the lights cause they're never on your side
it's taken all this time
it's taken all my life
it's taken all this time
to see my own reflection
