Love in a Car (Alternative Version) - The House of Love

Splintered piece of glass falls in the seat, gets caught Broken windows, open locks, reminders of the youth we lost In trying so hard to look away from you We followed white lines to the sunset Crash my car everyday the same way Time to let this pass (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Time runs through our veins (It starts and stops and starts and stops again) We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Time to let this pass (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Staring at the setting sun No reason to come back again The twilight world in blue and white The needle and the damage done I don't want to feel this way forever A dead letter marked return to sender Broken watch you gave me turns into compass It's two hands still point to the same time 12:03 Our last goodbye So push the seats back a little further I can see the headlights coming So push the seats back a little further Roll the windows down and take a breath I can see the headlights coming They paint the world in red and broken glass Time to let this pass (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Time runs through our veins (It starts and stops and starts and stops again) We don't stand a chance in this threadbare time (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Time to let this pass (The time it takes, the time it takes to let go) Staring at the setting sun No reason to come back again The twilight world in blue and white The needle and the damage done I don't want to feel this way forever A dead letter marked return to sender Spinning hubcaps set the tempo For the music of the broken window Cameras on the cameras click We open up the lens and can't stop Staring at the setting sun No reason to come back again The twilight world in blue and white The needle and the damage done I don't want to feel this way forever Lights are on, and the cameras click We open up the lens (to broken glass) Staring at the setting sun (and it's over) No reason to come back again (in a flash) The twilight world in blue and white (and I'll never) The needle and the damage done (ever understand) I don't want to feel this way forever (understanding) A dead letter marked return to sender (in a car crash, in a car crash) In a crash

Been through the wringer a couple times I came out callous and cruel And my two friends know this very well Because they went through it too The three of us were initiates We had to learn how to deal And when we spotted a second chance We had to learn how to steal Hollowed out and filled up with hate All we want is you to give us a break We're driving fast in my car We've got our riot gear on, but we just want to have fun No, we're not looking for violence, no, oh-oh-oh Tonight we want to have fun No one's the same as they used to be Much as we try to pretend No one's as innocent as can be We all fall short, we all sin But now we aren't looking backward We won't try raising the dead We only see what's in front of us We only see straight ahead Hollowed out and filled up with hate All we want is you to give us a break We're driving fast in my car We've got our riot gear on, but we just want to have fun No, we're not looking for violence, no, oh-oh-oh Tonight we want to have fun Get in my car and we'll drive around We'll make believe we are free Already proved we can tough it out And we get along so sweetly We're driving fast in my car We've got our riot gear on, but we just want to have fun No, we're not looking for violence, no, oh-oh-oh Tonight we want to have fun We're driving fast in my car We're driving fast in my car No, we're not looking for violence, no, oh-oh-oh We're driving fast in my car And we want just to have fun

Your love is like a car crash Babe, you're movin' too fast You're a hit and run Your love is like a car crash Leave me with my heart smashed You're a hit and run Oh, electrify me Oh, the pain can make me home Oh, release me from this hole I just can't let go Listen Don't stop doing what you do It hurts so bad but it feels so good (Mm, let me ask you) Why you don't pick up when I hit your phone?

Your love is like a car crash Babe, you're movin' too fast You're a hit and run Your love is like a car crash Leave me with my heart smashed You're a hit and run Oh, I crave Oh, you get me And cold is your storm Come inside I know there's a way Hope you let me I wanna make you feel So alive Your love is like a car crash Babe, you're movin' too fast You're a hit and run Your love is like a car crash Leave me with my heart smashed You're a hit and run Your love is like a car crash Babe, you're movin' too fast You're a hit and run Your love is like a car crash Leave me with my heart smashed You're a hit and run Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Oh oh Am I the only one? Am I the only one? Am I the only one?

Can you imagine that An itch too sensitive to scratch The light that falls through the cracks An insect too delicate to catch I hear the endless murmur Every blade of grass that shivers in the breeze And the sound that comes to carry me Across the land and over the sea And I can't look up Fingers of love move down And I can't look back Fingers of love move down Colour is its own reward Colour is its own reward The chiming of a perfect chord Let's go jumping overboard Into waves of joy and clarity Your hands come out to rescue me And I'm playing in the shallow water Laughing while the mad dog sleeps And I can't look up Fingers of love move down And I won't be hit Fingers of love move everywhere There is time yet Fall by the way From the cradle to the grave From a palace to the gutter Beneath the dying waves of the sun Lie fingers of love Through waves of joy and clarity A fallen angel walked on the sea And I'm playing in the shallow water Laughing while the mad dog sleeps And I can't look up Fingers of love move down And I won't be hit Fingers of love move everywhere And there is time yet For you to find me And all I want Fingers of love move down
