On The Motorway
I went and messed around with her heart So now she's run off with my car But I can't live without her and it's so hard to take So I've set out to find her, I'm back on the motorway At this wheel I drive the earth for her Every carriageway, a mile for her These five gears and wheels could drive to her But this carriageway can't take me there Driving at ninety miles per hour It's hard to know what's coming Then on the horizon something makes me brake I can see my darling ahead on the motorway I can see us lying on the bonnet of a Chevrolet So why's my baby lying at the side of the motorway? I wish that I had never said the things that I told her today 'Cause now she's left me crying on the shoulder of the motorway At this wheel I drive the earth for her Every carriageway, a mile for her These five gears and wheels could drive to her But this carriageway can't take me there From Letras Mania
