bruce springsteen – stolen car (tracks version) lyrics
well i found me a girl and i settled down
in a pretty little house in a pretty little town
we got married and promised never to part
then little by little we drifted from each other’s hearts
now i’m drivin’ a stolen car on a pitch-black night
and i’m doin’ my best to make it through
well i’m just sittin’ down here at the stanton light
i wanna get caught but i never do
at first i thought it was just restlessness
that would fade as time went by and our love grew deep
but in the end it was something more, i guess
that tore us apart and made us weep
and i’m drivin’ a stolen car waitin’ on that little red light
i keep tellin’ myself everything’s gonna be alright
but i ride by night and i travel in fear
that in this darkness i might just disappear
she asked if i remembered the letters i wrote
when our love was young and we were bold
she said last night she read those letters
and they made her feel a hundred years old
there’s a river runs by that little town
down into the sea
it was there in the shade i lay my body down
as she flowed on so effortlessly
now there’s a party tonight out at county line
there’ll be dancing down at seven trees
from these banks i can see those party lights shine
maybe she’s there, maybe she’s looking for me
last night i dreamed i made the call
i swore to return and stay forevermore
once again we stood on the wedding steps at victory hall
and walked arm in arm through the chapel door
i can remember how good i felt inside
when the preacher said “son, you may kiss the bride”
but as i leaned over to touch her pretty lips
i felt it all slip away through my fingertips
and i’m drivin’ a stolen car through a pitch-black night
i keep tellin’ myself everything’s gonna be alright
but i ride by night and i travel in fear
no matter what i do or where i drive
nobody ever sees me when i ride by
