lyrics

Dying just might be too much for me
Think I was readier when i was 19
Yeah well I've heard I've lived all over the world
But I've heard myself cry like a little girl
In the dark, after dark
Nadine

Hey Nadine, are you ready to die?
I watch your car tear past the road signs of the times
Well she drives 45 miles to a better place,
And she tries 45 years to grow into that face
That just don't, and it won't
Never did

And in the moment, in the way
They had it coming, had it going away
And for her future, for her sake
For every minute, every hour he takes

When he takes the bullet, my marine,
He takes it for her sake, and not for the team
And the crime, just a function of the times.
