We've all got a story 'round here
I've got one to tell
I think about it every now and then
When I'm drinking by myself
And I pull that old box of records down
Solid gold
And watch those memories spin around
This is how it goes
Do you ever go down to Paradise City?
'Cause I still do, it still gets me high
Not a day goes by that I don't think twice
About letting you down and letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good, feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me
Oughta box this heartbreak up
Put it back on the shelf
So close to letting go, but I can't help myself
I gotta turn down the lights and turn up the stereo
And lean my head against the wall and there I go
And I'm back in your arms and Tuesday's gone
Every "I love you" always on my mind
Not a day goes by that I don't think twice
About letting you down and letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good, feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me
♪
And I ain't seen you in forever
But that's alright
I know wherever you are
You look wonderful tonight
Do you ever go down to Paradise City?
'Cause I still do, it still gets me high
Not a day goes by that I don't think twice
About letting you down and letting you go
Your car wheels on a gravel road
Sounds so good, feels so bittersweet
Oh, it sounds so good, feels so bittersweet
The story of you and me
You and me
