Cohn, Marc - Strangers In A Car Lyrics






There's a stranger in a car
Driving down your street
Acts like he knows who you are
Slaps his hand on the empty seat and says
"Are you gonna get in
Or are you gonna stay out?"
Just a stranger in a car
Might be the one they told you about

Well you never were one for cautiousness
You open the door
He gives you a tender kiss
And you can't even hear them no more --
All the voices of choices
Now only one road remains
And strangers in a car
Two hearts, two souls, tonight, two lanes

You don't know where you're goin'
You don't know what you're doin'
Hell it might be the highway to heaven
And it might be the road to ruin
But this is a song
For strangers in a car
Baby maybe that's all
We really are

Strangers in a car
(Driving down your street)
Just strangers in a car
(Driving down your street)
Strangers in a car

    This should be the theme song to that new Ted Bundy flick coming out. I can just hear the piano melody playing softly when they walk him to the electric chair. Pan back and forth from his family to the people in the gallery watching him die. that would give me chills

    Eeww. I hope not.
    This song is about possibilities.
    Not death.
