Charlie Burg - 97 Avalon Lyrics

97 Avalon Lyrics[Verse 1]
See, I was driving down Woodward with you in the passenger seat
Doing fifty in my '97 Avalon
And as we drove past the Dutch Girl Donuts and the dispensary
You looked at me and said
That your dad's been depressed
"Can we change this CD?" you said
"Something a little more soulful"
I changed it and you said you heard my last EP
You kinda liked it
But you thought it did not sound like me
[Chorus]
But, ooh, the car is gone and we both left town
But I got this funny feeling with me now
We'll ride it again somehow, ooh

[Verse 2]
So I was speeding up 11 with you sittin' next to me
Sipping Bailey's from that Colorado coffee cup
And then we turned past the tea house where Mary read her poetry
And you looked at me and said
That you miss your college bed
Well, ain't this fine to see?
You reminiscin' as if I was the one who said
"No, this feelin' ain't rooted in reality"
And then you said, "Step on it"
And that's the last thing you ever said to me

[Chorus]
But, ooh, the car is gone and we'll both leave home
But I got this funny feeling in my bones
We'll ride it again before you go

[Verse 3]
So it was summer, maybe winter, can't remember
I couldn't see out the window of our '97 Avalon
See, it's been months since this engine made it on 75, you see
And on the phone before the crash
You said you love me, but you can't
And, you see, you think if you say it enough times aloud
You'll start to believe it, but I've got no idea now
And I'm, and I'm sitting in some café
All caught up about something I can't change
And I'm sipping that tea and my memory renews
And, all of a sudden, I'm on Woodward sittin' next to you
You might also like[Bridge]
You said our love is a fixer upper
Needs new paint to hide the nicks
Keep it in second gear to start
And drive it slow when the road is slick
Steer clear of the highway
And maybe one more summer, it'll last
Yes, maybe one more summer
We can be young and drive it fast

[Chorus]
But, ooh, the car is gone and we both left town
But I got this funny feeling with me now (Oh yeah, woo)
