High Road

I hit the high road
Running till the batteries empty
A minefield of hope, but I'm ready
Ready to fly the nest or maybe fail the test
Let's make a date, take a chance, talk about it
An Olympian feat, I don't doubt it
Round and round he said to me.

"Do you believe in love or rock n roll?"
"Do you believe in love or have you sold your soul?"
"Do you believe in love or rock n roll?"
"And which will be your downfall".

Be my baby, be my baby tonight
Be the boy that knows me but who never owes me
Saving all my best for you yet
And I need you now we're out of time
Be my baby tonight
Miles and miles but all the while
Won't you be my baby
Be my baby tonight.

I'm not a fighter
Transparency's always apparent
But I'm always prepared for a torrent
Of tales and tests built only to impress
I'll take a chance, make a date, talk about it
With you if you think you are ready
Ready to fly the nest or maybe pass the test.

Be my baby, be my baby tonight
Be the boy that knows me but who never owes me
Saving all my best for you yet
And I need you now we're out of time
Be my baby tonight
Miles and miles but all the while
Won't you be my baby
Be my baby tonight.

I'm sorry if I let you down
You know that I can't give you up
And you said to me
"Do you believe in love or rock n roll?"
"Do you believe in love or have you sold your soul?"
"Do you believe in love or rock n roll?"
"And which will be your downfall?"
