I was 23 and living in the city I met a long-legged blonde on friday night It was a head on collision of pa**ion 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 k**ed Chorus
