Bags packed and a tank of gas
Don't know where we're going til we drive past
Time on our hands, no need to drive fast
She's fast asleep in the backseat
He's reading up on history
It's just you and me, and chemistry

At sunset we'll drive west
Driving 55 toward the city lights
Only miles will pass us by
At sunset we'll drive west
Going 55, yeah we'll drive all night
We'll see the sea at sunrise

Daydreams of love and life
Embracing both as we pass them by
These desert skies, the color of our lives
Everything we need surrounds us
Whispers on the wind, the sun's kiss
And our love affair with the frivolous
