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
