[00:02.19].
[00:12.74]We were young we were barely 19
[00:18.61]Going places that we have never seen
[00:24.29]So I packed a flashlight and the camera
[00:30.36]2,000 miles to California
[00:33.85].
[00:36.37]We packed our clothes in paper bags
[00:42.17]We made mix tapes of our favorite bands
[00:48.23]I remember my father in the driveway
[00:51.23]
[00:54.02]I could tell that he was putting on his brave face for me
[00:58.65].
[00:58.90]As we drove far away
[01:02.03]Stayed any place for free
[01:05.21]I picked up a nickel on the train tracks
[01:10.58]We had songs we liked to sing
[01:13.96]And we tape recorded things
[01:16.58]Tied ribbons round the trees to find our way back
[01:23.95].
[01:29.57]We stopped in every small town we came across
[01:35.57]We slept in motel parking lots
[01:41.26]I remember Montana and the big sky
[01:47.20]I remember how she stood there with her arms held open wide
[01:51.89].
[01:52.14]As we drove far away
[01:55.26]Stayed any place for free
[01:58.39]We pulled over when we saw the sunflowers
[02:03.69]And we both carved our names
[02:07.26]In a fence along the way
[02:10.32]And Sharon honked the horn at every state line
[02:15.57].
[02:33.93]We were young and we, were just beginning our lives
[02:40.12]Like 2 birds set free for the first time
[02:45.37]Not a penny to our names
[02:48.87]And our dresses were handmade
[02:51.51]We picked flowers and sage
[02:54.26]And dried them in
[02:56.39]The dashboard of the car
