I heard the big city never sleeps   Hear they roll up the streets around 10 o'clock   On the other side of River Bridge   There's a spot on Powell Ridge where the asphalt stops      Sometimes when the sky is clear   We slip away and disappear      [Chorus:]   Layin' out on the hood of the car   Spellin' our names by connecting the stars   Love, runnin' as deep as the creek runs clear   You got heaven on earth down here      Sometimes I hear from an old friend   I hadn't seen since I don't know when   From out of the blue   We'll laugh and shed some tears   Catch up on the past few years in a minute or two      I know it's hard for you to believe   But there's no place, I'd rather be      [Chorus:]   Layin' out on the hood of the car   Spellin' our names by connecting the stars   Love, runnin' as deep as the creek runs clear   You got heaven on earth down here      Why be in a hurry   No need to watch the clock   Time moves so slow down here you can almost feel it start      Layin' out on the hood of the car   Spellin' our names by connecting the stars   Love, runnin' as deep as the creek runs clear      [Chorus:]   Layin' out on the hood of the car   Spellin' our names by connecting the stars   Love, runnin' as deep as the creek runs clear   You got heaven on earth down here      You got heaven on earth down here
