Never Ceases to Amaze Me

[Oberon]

I've been listening to a bit more radio the last few days (usually CD/mp3 guy) and it still amazes me how a song you have not heard in years will come up and BANG there you are 16 years old again... Tonight it was Night Ranger's "Sister Christian" Ok so I wasn't 16 actually 19 sitting in the Gunroom at CFOCS Chilliwack drinking cheap sherry my whole life and career ahead of me ... damn it appears that was atleast 3 careers ago.... i think I might have to listen to some Eagles and Meatloaf (then I will be 16 again)...

Sister Christian

Sister Christian, oh the time has come

And you know that you're the only one to say
Okay
Where you goin', what you looking for?

You know those boys don't want to play no more with you
It's true
You're motoring

What's your price for flight,
And finding Mister Right?
You'll be all right tonight
Babe, you know you're growing up so fast

And momma's worrying that you won't last to say
Let's play
Sister Christian, there's so much in life

Don't you give it up before your time is due
It's true
It's true (Yeah)
You're motoring

You've got him in your sights
And driving through the night
You're motoring
What's your price for flight,
And finding Mister Right?
You'll be all right tonight
You're motoring

What's your price for flight,
And finding Mister Right?
You'll be all right tonight
You're motoring
What's your price for flight,
And finding Mister Right?
You'll be all right...
Tonight
Sister Christian, oh the time has come

And you know that you're the only one to say
Okay
But you're motoring
