We Always Wanted To Be Explorers

Well if you want to
I am standing right here
I am standing with my left hand on the car
And the right hand on the handle
So if you want to
Just come and jump on in
We can go and drive for hours
Over the coarse country side

And in the Spring
We can visit all the countries
And see all the road signs
That politely dot the map
In the Summer
We can play by lakes and pools
Go fishing for newts
And take a doze with barley in our mouths

I hope this is all it'll ever be
Two friends in company
The sun, the moon, the wind
The rain and roads
Who knows where we're going
Who knows where we'll go
Not I
Oh no, no, no, no, no not I

And if you want
We can stay one more night
And see how the crikets in the fields
All come alive
And if you want
We can go out to the town
Drinking up the smoke
And the neon lights

If it's too cold
We'll keep the engine running
So nothing there can harm us
Except the fumes on the inside
And if it's too warm
We can go dive in a lake
Skinny dip and splash away
The dry out naked on hillsides

I hope this is all it'll ever be
Two friends in company
The sun, the moon, the wind
The rain and roads
Who knows where we're going
Who knows where we will go
Not I
Oh no, no, no, no, no not I

We always wanted to be explorers
We just needed the time of day
We needed a pirate ship and
A crew that will not stray
Well our pirate ships run by horses
And we have a crew of two
We'll bucaneer the road sides
And we'll store the treasure in the boot

I hope this is all it'll ever be
Two friends in company
The sun, the moon, the wind
The rain and roads
Who knows where we're going
Who knows where we'll go
Not I
Oh no, no, no, no, no not I

Well if you want to
I am standing right here
I am standing with my left hand on the car
And the right hand on the handle
So if you want to
Just come and jump on in
We can go and drive for hours
Over the course country side

You should add the British translation! hehe I got it though. It had a really driving feel to it. I could feel the shifting gears and since I've been researching my neighbor's Karmann Ghia that's what I was picturing for the scootabout. I liked the escape quality and the pirate idea. It brought back a few memories, too, so that gave it a personal quality. I liked it a lot.
