Stolen Car

i met a little girl and i settled down

in a little house out on the edge of town

we got married, we 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

but in the end there was more i guess

that tore us apart and made us weep



i'm riding a stolen bike

up and down Damon Avenue

each night i wait to get caught

but i never do



she asked if i remembered those 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



i'm riding a stolen bike

on a pitch black night

i keep telling myself it's gonna be alright

but i ride by night and i travel in fear

that in this darkness i will disappear
