Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 hearts [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus 1] And I'm driving a stolen car down on Eldridge Avenue Each night, I wait to get caught, but I never do [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus 2] 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 disappear
