STOLEN CAR

a.k.a. SON YOU MAY KISS THE BRIDE

Outtake version 7

I met a little girl and I settled down
In a little house out on the edge of town
We got married, and swore never to part
Then we drifted from each other's heart
???
???
???
???

Tonight I'm running in a stolen car
Driving a stolen car
Driving a stolen car

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 else I guess
That tore us apart and made us weep
???
???
In the darkness I might disappear

Tonight I'm driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car

???
I promised to come home forever more
???
Through the chapel door
I remember how good I felt inside
The preacher said "you may kiss the bride"
??? when I tried

Tonight I'm driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car

No one sees me when I drive by

Tonight I'm driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car
Driving in a stolen car
