She'd made it plain
|
That I'd run out of ways
|
To win her back again
|
Her seat was back
|
No seat belt on
|
And on the radio
|
Some too familiar song
|
I thought if I could hurt her
|
Then she couldn't leave
|
She'd need someone to nurse her
|
Someone could be me
|
Together hell for leather shooting up the midnight motorway
|
I drove the car that took my love away
|
I glimpsed her hair
|
Blown by the wind
|
And passing headlights
|
Dance across her perfect skin
|
I saw the road
|
Its curves ahead
|
Then I saw me with flowers
|
At her hospital bed
|
I saw the corner nearing
|
And looked to the sky
|
I let go of the steering wheel
|
And closed my eyes
|
And though it never crossed my mind she might not live to see the day
|
I drove the car that took my love away
|
Together hell for leather shooting up the midnight motorway
|
I drove the car that took my love away
|
