I went and messed around with her heart So now she's run off with my car But I can't live without her (and it's so hard to take) So I've set off out to find her I'm back on the motorway
At this wheel I'd drive the earth for her Every carriageway a mile for her These five gears and wheels could drive to her But this carriageway can't take me there
Drivin' at ninety miles per hour It's hard to know what's comin' Then on the horizon Something makes me brake I can see me darlin' ahead on the motorway (I can see us dying on the bonnet of a Chevrolet) So why's my baby lying on the side of the motorway
(I wish that I had never said the things that I'd told her today) 'Cos now she's left me crying on the shoulder of the motorway
At this wheel I'd drive the earth for her Every carriageway a mile for her These five gears and wheels could drive to her But this carriageway can't take me there
