I was driving my car down 202
I was trying really hard to forget about you
I had the radio on and the windows down
I was doing 75 I was covering ground
You see, I had a plan, but I lost my nerve
But then I lost control on a nasty curve
For a second it felt just like I could fly
But then a second is all that it takes
All that it takes to die - bye bye.
Well, they scraped me off of that telephone pole
Threw, my carcass in a hearse,
and we started to roll
I couldn't feel no pain although
I was torn right in two
The only thing I could do was think about you
So tell me darling, what else is new?
Now I can see me lying in my plush new bed
I don't remember dying but I sure do look dead
They gotta close the lid because I'm mangled
up so bad
I wish everyone around here wasn't so sad
And I can see you standing with my dad and mom
You're back together but I'm all gone
Before they give me to them graveyard guys
I want one last look into your eyes,
into those eyes
I was driving my car down 202
I was trying really hard to forget about you
I was driving my car down 202
I should have never left you
I should have never gone
I was trying really hard to forget about you
I had the radio on and the windows down

You see, I had a plan, but I lost my nerve
But then I lost control on a nasty curve
