We′re takin' a ride
Down to the Court Street tonight
Hey, young
You feel like you could die

This ain′t right
Well they shuffle your name
Three cops under the bridge on the lookout haunt
Watch you speed away

One, the one that walked away
As you drive
To Willow Lane

I thought I knew the right things to say
Thought I knew the right things to say
I thought I knew the right things to say
But you're fadin' away
On Willow Lane

You could count the stars
Johnny′s gonna count the money in the bag
You could count your blessings
But how many have you really had?

You can watch the moon rise
Or you could watch it go down
There ain′t nobody lookin' for you, baby
Nobody lookin′ for you now

I thought I knew the right things to say
I thought I knew the right things to say
Thought I knew the right things to say
But you've faded away
Down to Willow Lane

There′s shuffle out the heartbeat, stuck inside a drum
If it was topsy and turvy fallin' down the stairs into a bunch of drums
And I ain′t got no time for you, I ain't got no time
Ain't got nothin′ to say, I ain′t got nothin' to confess for awhile

I thought I knew the right things to say
Thought I knew what would take you away
Thought I knew the right things to say
But you′re fadin' away
To Willow Lane
