Оригинален текст
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
at first I thought it was just restlessness
that would fade as time went by and our
love grew deep
en the end it was something more I guess
that tore us apart and made us weep
and I'm driving a stolen car
down on Eldridge Avenue
each night I wait to get caught
but I never do
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
and 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
