"Kissing In the Dark." Sung to the tune of "Dancing In the Dark" from Bruce
Springsteen.
NOTES: Coming up with rhymes for the chorus was really hard from what I remember. The song is also sung at a somewhat fast pace, so I sort of cheated with a few syllabols here and there. This is my favorite Springsteen song as well. It's a happy rock song, but, as the title implies, it's very danceable too. It's Marty's POV of how he felt about Lorraine in 1955.
Runnin' in the time machine.
And I'm in '55 today.
My dad fell out of the tree.
I go to push him out of the way.
I ain't supposed to get hit.
Man, I hope it's a dream myself.
Mom, is that you?
Could you stop flirtin' with me?
CHORUS 1.
You can't start a family.
Not with your own son, it's hard.
Go with George for me.
Gotta make sure you're kissin' in the dark.
NEXT VERSE.
Messages keep getting clearer.
Dad has never been in a fight, he'll cave.
He even lets Biff steal his beer.
You wanna see, a man, who's strong, and brave!
Mom, I'm trying to convince him.
The guy would rather watch TV.
I scared him into asking you out.
He says you're his density.
CHORUS 2.
You can't start a family.
Not if you go with me and park.
Go with George for me.
Gotta make sure you're kissin' in the dark.
BRIDGE.
You're nothin' like when you're older.
In the future, you don't like my girlfriend.
But I can see why you're colder.
The geek depressed you in the end.
I'm nervous sittin' in this car.
But he'll coming to punch me soon.
Why'd Biff have to find me first?
He's mad, about the manure and I'm doomed!
He made his move on you now.
I gotta get out of the Starlighters' trunk.
I see a pleasant surprise.
Dad socked Biff and turned into your hunk.
CHORUS 3.
You can't start a family.
Without the band, playin' rock a little too hard.
Marvin said it's on me.
Than you guys were kissin' in the dark.
CHORUS 4.
You're gonna start a family.
Unlike before, we won't be driftin' apart.
This is because of me.
Makin' sure you were kissin' in the dark. (Repeat)
