Sting — Stolen Car Take Me Dancing

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 from the light Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] [Bridge] 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 [Chorus]
