Jennifer Smiles (Eddie Biggins)

Her eyes, they shine in the neon glow Of the lights along route one We got The Rolling Stones on the radio As we drive beneath a dying sun Her lips are sweet as the evening air And her hair smells fresh and clean She seems to know me inside and out, I swear Though I know she’s only seventeen

[chorus:] Jennifer smiles and the world seems all right And there’s never a cloud in the dark of the night We got a bottle of wine and you know we just might Wanna stay right here Jennifer smiles and my cares fly away And life is so much better than yesterday The stars are all out and we just gotta stay Gotta stay Stay

The headlights crawl through deserted streets As we drive to the water tower The smell of burning rubber and vinyl seats Can consecrate this present hour The rain comes down like a tidal wave And drips upon the glass We’ve made the kind of night that my mind will save And I hope that it won’t be the last

[chorus:]
