Late at night in summer heat. Expensive car, empty street
There´s a wire in my jacket. This is my trade
It only takes a moment, don´t be afraid
I can hotwire an ignition like some kind of star
I´m just a poor boy in a rich man´s car
So I whisper to the engine, flick on the lights
And we drive into the night

Oh the smell of the leather always excited my imagination
And I picture myself in this different situation
I´m a company director, two kids and a wife
I get the feeling that there´s more to this one´s life
There´s some kind of complication, he tells her he´s alone
Spends the night with his lover, there´s a trace of her cologne
And the words of his mistress, as she whispers them so near
Start ringing in my ear

{Refrain:}
Please take me dancing tonight I´ve been all on my own
You promised one day we could its, what you said on the phone
I´m just a prisoner of love always hid form the light
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight

I imagine his wife, she don´t look nothing like a fool
She picks the kids up form some private school
She remembers what he told her, he was late and worked alone
But there´s more than a suspicion in this lingering cologne
And the kid´s just won´t be quiet and she runs a traffic light
And she drives into the night

{au Refrain}

So here am I in a stolen car at a traffic light
They go form red to green and so I just drive into the night

{au Refrain}
