Patent Leather Car

Interested only in a solitary life

Feeding off the wanton dreams

Of loving hearts and lonely lives and

You give to me

Everything I need when all I wanted

Was starry eyes and movie love

Oh, but you tried to go too far in your Patent Leather Car

The worst things that you said are now dancing in my head

And I'm left crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there

But you're not there

Crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there

Though these child-like eyes

I see another child a child of all the daydreams in the stories of the wild

In all I'm taken in you fire my imagination

But never did I recognize the warning signs displayed

Oh, but you tried to go too far in your Patent Leather Car

The worst things that you said are now dancing in my head

And I'm left crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there

But you're not there

Crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there

You tried to go too far in your Patent Leather Car

The worst things that you said are dancing in my head

Oh, but you tried to go too far in your Patent Leather Car

The worst things that you said are now dancing in my head

And I'm left crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there

But you're not there

Crying on the pavement

I never could have got this far without you there
