Like I knew that you would come to me and we'd run away with all our dreams.
Don't you think that I'd prepare a bit to try to make it all complete.
To run away is not the kind of thing that I do in a normal day,
But it's so cool that we're together and we're smiling drinking soda.
I want to jump in a lake.
Sun shining down on a beach in the summer.

    General Comment:Several years ago National Review magazine ran an article that listed the 50 Greatest Conservative rock songs of all-time. And while Soda didn't make that list, it should have. The lyrics could easily have been written and sung in the 1950's - and that's actually why I like this song. He and his girl have found pure, true love. They aren't smoking crack or getting hammered together and fighting, or sharing needles; they're drinking soda! I just love that. I mean that to me is pure love, and it makes him so happy he just wants to go...jump in a lake! I hope that some day all of us may find that pure, innocent love where just being with that person and staring into their eyes while sharing a soda could be enough.
