Blue Car-Manhattan 2 miles
I hated those cigarettes Monday
come Tuesday you had said you were sorry
all the traffic lights were calling us back
tangled in cat’s cradle in New York
I love you though you are no longer mine
and I am someone else’s daughter
Those black labels were sinking in to you
until you had no thoughts to lack anymore
begin our own life see it made me very numb
we left her behind and I played dumb
It was highway robbery from the start
I stole from him but he still kept my heart
the golden gate bridge looked like his eyes
even to me it was a big surprise
