Hey now, little darling, keep this dream alive
Said hey now, little darling, I know you've sacrificed
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
Said hey now, little darling, let me take you home
She had a hard life, it's really not fair
Hides behind a smile and a deep cold stare
The time on her feet took a bounce and a step
She'd been let down by every man she'd met
Losing her sympathy, no more tears
Now she's getting older, the dreams disappear
The waves won't stop, man, she running hot
She keeps getting looks by everyone on the block
Friday night, she need a ride
Twenty bones to get her dance
Babe, I'm not losing my mind
I still think we got a chance
Hey now, little darling, keep this dream alive
Hey now, little darling, I know you've sacrificed
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
I said hey now, little darling, let me take you home
If they keep coming at you, I'll stand in line
We don't have to run now, we don't have to stay
Cause even in a pinch, I can still make it work
You know where to find me, tell me where it hurts
So baby, leave a light on, you know me so well
We can hit the highway, this time it won't fail
Go get your things, I'll *** the wheel
You know I still got it and you still got the feel
Suddenly now, we're gonna ride
Forty bones up to the tank
Leave the past far behind
You won't even have to blink, blink
Hey now, little darling, let me take you home
Hey now, little darling, keep this dream alive
I said hey now, little darling, I know you've sacrificed
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
I said hey now, little darling, let me take you home
Take you home
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
Way back when you had everything
And the diamonds were in your eyes
I didn't always know what you meant to me
Now I'll never leave you behind
Baby, you're my darling
Baby, you're my darling
Hey now, little darling, keep this dream alive
I said hey now, little darling, I know you've sacrificed
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
I said hey now, little darling, let me take you home
Take you home
Take you home
Hey now, little darling, don't turn your heart to stone
I said hey now, little darling, let me take you home
Let it go, let it go
Cause I can't hold it
