D D/B C
Weathered sign on the marquee
D D/B C
An old film playing at the show
D D/B C
He could tell by the clouds up top
D D/B C
And old northern was about to blow
D D/B C
So he hopped in his pick-up truck
D D/B C
Steered it on down the road
D D/B C
Then he picked up his dark-haired beauty
D D/B C
Drove on down nice and slow, singing
G C D
This is my girl
G C D
This is my world
G C D
This is my girl
G C D
This is my world
A lovers' tune on the stereo
Cool breeze blowin' through her hair
He whispers to her soft and low
And quietly she stares
He says I know I could be a movie star
I know that you could be my wife
I was thinking at work today
I wanna leave with you tonight, because
Chorus
They drive on past midnight
Wishing on stars as they go
Two young believers
Too young to know
Like a man in a story book
He takes off down the open road
Taking off to God knows where
He's taking off just to go
