Burning Car Lyrics by John Foxx

Metamatic

1980

[Verse 1]
She was dressed in a white suit
She looked like a bride too
It's a burning car
It's a burning car
Then I looked at the sunset
And it felt like a stage set
It's a burning car
It's a burning car
Alright

[Verse 2]
And I looked at my watch face
I remembered the time and place
It's a burning car
It's a burning car
And I breathed in the night perfume
As we met in the dark room
It's a burning car
It's a burning car
Alright
