I said I would not go Down this road Again with you I said we'd never get Where we're going You know it's true I said I got no use For a shiny car And there you are You take me for a ride How can you hold me Like you do When you're not here How can you hold back A beating heart When it's ringing in my ear How can you trouble me Through and through You know you do You take me for a ride You take me for a ride Wrap your arms around me High come on tight You take me for a ride ♪ There are not stars tonight Just a string of lights I walk to by myself Left the cigarettes Behind the counter Left the liquor on the shelf And in the dark A familiar spark And there you are You take me for a ride You take me for a ride Wrap your arms around me High come on tight You take me for a ride You take me for a ride ♪
