Stolen car

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 disappea
