You were standing with your girlfriends in the street,
Fallen back on forever,
I wonder what you came to be.
I was new in town,
the boy with the eager eyes,
I never was a quitter,
Oblivious to school girls’ lies.
And when I look back on those neon nights,
The leather seat, the passage rite,
I feel the heat, I see the light,
From Miss Atomic Bomb.
We're making out, we got the radio on,
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone,
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Racing shadows in the moonlight,
Through the desert on a hot night,
For a second there we'd won,
Yeah, we were innocent and young.
Oohhhhhhhhhhh,
Cast out of the night, well you got a foolish heart,
So you took your place, but the fall from grace was the
hardest part,
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back,
You’ll recover but you can’t escape the second attack,
Its soul is innocence she kissed him and painted it
black,
You should've seen your little face burning for love,
Holding on for your life.
All that I wanted is a little touch,
A little tenderness, the truth,
I didn't ask for much, no,
Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Oh Miss Atomic Bomb.
We're making out, we got the radio on,
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone,
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Racing shadows in the moonlight,
Taking chances on a hot night,
And for a second there we'd won,
Yeah, we were innocent and young.
A dust cloud has settled and my eyes are clear,
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear,
Miss Atomic Bomb.
Out standing here,
Sweat on my skin,
And this love that I've cradled,
It's wearing thin.
(Miss Atomic Bomb)
But I'm standing here,
And you’re too late,
Your shockwave whispers,
They sealed your fate.
(It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back,

All that I wanted is a little touch,
A little tenderness, the truth, I didn't ask for much,
