Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I met a little girl and I settled down
In a little house out on the edge of town
We got married, and swore we'd never part
Then little by little we drifted from each other's heart

At first I thought it was just restlessness
That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep
In the end it was something more I guess
That tore us apart and made us weep

And I'm driving a stolen car
Down on Eldridge Avenue
Each night I wait to get caught
But I never do

She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote
When our love was young and bold
She said last night she read those letters
And they made her feel one hundred years old

And I'm driving a stolen car
On a pitch black night
And I'm telling myself I'm gonna be alright
But I ride by night and I travel in fear
That in this darkness I will disappear
I met a little girl and I settled down   In a little house out on the edge of town   We got married, and swore we'd never part   Then little by little we drifted from each other's heart      At first I thought it was just restlessness   That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep   In the end it was something more I guess   That tore us apart and made us weep      And I'm driving a stolen car   Down on Eldridge Avenue   Each night I wait to get caught   But I never do      She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote   When our love was young and bold   She said last night she read those letters   And they made her feel one hundred years old      And I'm driving a stolen car   On a pitch black night   And I'm telling myself I'm gonna be alright   But I ride by night and I travel in fear   That in this darkness I will disappear
