Christine

The Russians were the enemy
Howdy Doody on TV
Black & white's the world we'd see
While Ruby ironed the sheets

An angel with a broken leg
Your brothers prayed it'd heal that day
Brooklyn is a paved mistake
Yet you were the air they breathed
Christine

The storms ahead were sure to come
You'd gather snowflakes in your palm
Dad's Polaroid® preserved it all
Until he called you in to feast

Ricky Nelson was a dream
All the news you heard was the Kennedy's
Rubber Soul came out & set you free
The year before you turned 16
Christine
Christine

Some place not like here you're driving in your car
The top is down, the DJ plays your song
We are holding hands there in light that shapes your star
A dream for me in times like these long gone
A dream for me in times like these, you're gone

Bell bottom girl served wedding cake
Beneath the sweet, a sour taste
This Jersey town you can't erase
But you'll save your boy and leave

All the tapes would jam or just decay
You Imagined living for the day
It's how you learned to come and love again
You were happy to be
Christine
You were happy to be
Christine

All the tapes would jam or just decay
You Imagined living for the day
The storms ahead were sure to come
You'd gather snowflakes in your palm
Christine
