The lyrics are posted below:

What do you do
When it's falling apart
And you know it was going
From the very start
Do you close your eyes
And dream about me

A girl in love
With a gleam in her eye
I was a yonger boy
All dressed in white
We're older now
Do you still think about me

I remember we learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
Well it felt so good to be young
Feels like yesterday

When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me

I guess I don't know what I'm thinking
Coming off a hard night of drinking
Angle come closer to me
I need a soul to bleed on

It could'a been done
In a different kinda way
But that ain't you
You play tough when you play
It's over now
I bet you still think about me

I remember I held you so tight
And we danced the night away
With the moves of two wide eyed kids
I need you so much today

When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
When you close your eyes
Do you dream about me
(repeat)

I remember we learned about love
In the back of a Chevrolet
No good for an old memory
To mean so much today
(repeat chorus)

Nice to see how pretty the girls were back then.. not ghetto hoes that we have now... well that speaks for the difference in music of today and yesterday doesn't it.

I was a senior in 1984, remember those days well, still. Sadly, Nightranger totally LOST IT after this album...got into this freaky 'like X-Files' weird accoustic, emo, lost in the world sad crap...didn't even SOUND the same...

Brad Gillis is an awesome guitarist,after Randy Rhoads was killed he finished the Diary Of A Madman Tour with Ozzy.To pick up the guitar and replace Randy takes alot of experience and willpower,considering Ozzy gave him 3 days to learn everything Randy performed.!

@prestonwiginton1964 SO TRUE!!! Girls then had hot bodies and were not fat, ghetto sluts. I remember how girls had skin tight jeans on and really took care of themselves.

So many fat and ugly whores now. I'm so glad I grew up in the 80s'!!!!

Girls now are fat and men have to settle for that? SCREW THAT SHIT. No wonder more men are turning gay.

This was when videos actually made sense! MTV sucks crap now. No music and just Jersey Shore. SAD!

@prestonwiginton1964 wasn't talking about the girls around the table, but the older one... I see who hamburgler is looking at.

[prestonwiginton1964]

@hamburgler the girl in the video is 10? or the girls they used in the Sister Christian video were 10? Dude your blind.

[hamburgler]

@prestonwiginton1964

dud e, your fuked, their like 10 you sick fuck

[TheTEDBUNDY40]

@prestonwiginton1964 yes the girls were very pretty back then, but they were also stuck up slutty bitches!! i swear at least 90% of these pretty girls were like this!

@JPMcFly1985 You noticed that too, huh? I can't figure out if it's skipping a generation or what? I'm amazed at all the younger people who like stuff that got blasted just about a decade ago. I will say one thing, though: I always hated and continued to hate Tawny Kitaen. Somebody just called me an old trout for bashing her, and I laughed and told them they must be a worm! My age doesn't bother me, because I'm realistic about it, unlike Tawny!

[JPMcFly1985]

@Multi80schick Yeah, I'd say the 80s got the most hate then (it wasn't easy being a teen, haha). I agree. Bands like this actually seem way more appreciated by new fans today than most of that era's music!

how bad did GEFFEN records cash in on all the great bands in the 80's!!
