LONG BLACK SHINY CAR
(Mike Page)
MIKE PAGE (ROYCE 0005, 1960)
RESTLESS (NERVOUS, 1982) Ever since that morning you went away
People have been talkin' and here's what they say
She's found someone else who's richer by far
She's got all his money and his long black shiny car I've seen you once or twice, when I walk down your street
I always go by your house on a chance that we might meet
But every time I see you, you look so near, yet far
And off course you're always drivin' in that long black shiny car I can't offer you anything of gold
But the love that's in my heart is richer far, I'm told
Diamonds and pearls for you are only for a spree
But the treasure in my heart will last eternally, last eternally If you thought his money would give you peace of mind
Baby you were wrong, mistakin' all the time
So anytime you want me to come back to you
Just tell me when you're ready, 'cause that's what I wanna do I can't offer you anything of gold
But the love that's in my heart is richer far, I'm told
Diamonds and pearls for you are only for a spree
But the treasure in my heart will last eternally, last eternally |
