THE CLARKS LYRICS - Fast Moving Cars

"Fast Moving Cars"



Lonely faces all along the way

Broken city all dressed up in gray

In the rain outside the restaurant



I make money but I still feel broke

I start drinking and I want a smoke

Doing doughnuts in the parking lot



Driving fast moving cars and drinking

Old in these bars and thinking I could

Paint all those stars



Empty bottles on an empty stage

End of story on the final page

Of a book that no one knows about



This is it this is my last goodbye

This is where my dreams go to die

In the trash behind the record shop



I'm driving fast moving cars and drinking

Old in these bars and thinking I could

Paint all those stars

Singing old timey songs and thinking I could

Right all these wrongs and drinking 'til the

Pain is all gone



After all this time I still believe

With a few tricks hidden up my sleeve

In the sun way down in Mexico
