Bad Idea
Steven Romero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're getting out of here tonight
And who I was before I can leave behind
And I don′t care if anybody disapproves
I'm young, in love and all I want is here with you
So how about we get lost
Go until we're gone
I know this could be a bad idea
You′re so beautiful
There′s no where else to look
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
I don't care if it′s a bad idea
Where's the fun in always acting like you should
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
We′re driving fast
The wind is rushing through your hair
Don't need no cash
We′re breathing in designer air
The night is ours
We're howling up at the moon
I promise you
We ain't got nothing to lose
So how about we get lost
Go until we′re gone
I know this could be a bad idea
You′re so beautiful
There's no where else to look
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
I don′t care if it's a bad idea
Where′s the fun in always acting like you should
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
(Bad idea)
Oh this could be a
(Bad idea)
I don't care if we′re a

Now this could be a bad idea
Never felt so good
I know this could be a bad idea
You're so beautiful
There's no where else to look
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
I don′t care if it′s a bad idea
Where's the fun in always acting like you should
Come along with me and take my hand
A bad idea never felt so good
