Story Songs

Van, I am going to need more than one Mount Rushmore for this one. I think I will put five or six on my first Mt Rushmore but the teacher in me wants to let you an Jet determine my choices from the information I describe. I love giving quizzes(I just don't like the grading). lol This one is not on my first Mt Rushmore but it is a great classic rock song, nevertheless. I will follow with my six or so favorites.

This 1977 rock song lasts more than 8 minutes, but it's utterly entertaining. The song demonstrates how one moment of weakness can sentence two vulnerable people to be linked together forever.
A teenage couple is parked by the lake when their makeout session gets overheated and takes a very adult turn. Before consummating their lust, the young woman demands:

Quote:Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away, and will you make me your wife?



Rather than answer her, the aroused young man prefers to sleep on it. But that's not good enough because she needs an answer NOW. They eventually give in to their passions, as he promises on his mother's grave to love her until the end of time.
The song then cuts to years later, as they are unhappily married:

Quote:So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
'Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive.
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now.
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all I can do (ooh, ooh)
I'm praying for the end of time
So I can end my time with you
