I was 23 and living in the city
I met a long-legged blonde on friday night
It was a head on collision of passion
We made wild-eyed, loose-lipped love all night
On saturday we went out dancing
I could see she wanted to be free
She said, darling, I'm sorry to leave you this way...
I said, how can you walk out on me?

(chorus)
She said, hey, hey, my, my, what's the story?
How can you say I broke your heart?
Someone as old as you should never look for the truth
In promises made in the dark.

Well, I went back to her apartment
I waited all night in my car
When she got there I said, hey you can't take him to bed!
She said, who in the hell do you think you are?

Chorus

When her boyfriend pulled out a revolver
I smiled and I said my farewells
Love can take you to the sun, love can take you to the moon
It's not worth getting you killed

Chorus

• A Place of Her Own
• Ashes of My Heart
• Faces in Picasso's Notebook
• From Ragtime to Rags
• Jeune Fille in a White Sundress
• Not Dead Yet
• One Perfect Moment
• Promises in The Dark
• Rubber Cement Man
• She Smiles Like Richard Nixon
• Squeezing The Puzzle Together
• Statue by My Phone
