[Verse 1]
The screen door slams
Mary's dress waves
Like a vision, she dances across the porch as the radio plays
It's Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone again
Don't you run back inside darling, you know just what I'm here for
You're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
Oh, and that's alright with me
[Verse 2]
You can hide underneath your covers and study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers, throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain for a savior to rise from these streets
Well, I'm no hero, that's understood
All the redemption I can offer girl, is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey, what else can we do now?
Except roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hair?
Well, the night's busting open, these two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heaven's waiting down on the tracks
Oh, oh, come take my hand
We're ridin' out tonight to case this promised land
Oh, oh, Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road, Thunder Road
You're lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey, I know it's late but we can make it if we run
Oh Thunder Road sit tight, take hold
Thunder Road
The screen door slams

Don't turn me home again

Don't you run back inside darling, you know just what I'm here for
You're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymore
