Chasing Tomorrow Lyrics

They got married in Reno

At the fast lane chapel drive thru

With a swig of Jim Beam they were married with couple of I do's

In a pick up truck

They wrote married for love

On the window

From a shotgun rack

Hung couple of six packs

Of red white and blue

Only the road ahead

And the stars above to follow

What was it they said?

They were only chasing tomorrow

They drove all night

Pulled into LA at first light

You could still see the moon

They had breakfast at Mel's

And though they were tired as hell

They saw the flowers on Wilshere in bloom

They parked by the beach

Pulled a blanket from behind the seat and walked out into the sand

As the waves were rolling in

She turned and looked at him

She said I know you know you're a lucky man

And he raced her down to the water

Picked her up when he caught her

And kissed her lips and tasted like salt

Slept in the flat bed

Woke up and she said

I love you is always my first thought

Only the road ahead and the stars above to follow

What was it they said they were only chasing tomorrow
