walking on the road side
the rain was coming through our coats
the abandoned car came into view
finding one door open
we gave a cry and dove inside
and that was where
we spent the afternoon
afternoon

oh, i thank you for the roses
thank you for the ride
i caught with you

standing on the curb side
waiting for the light to go
talking of our million things to do
a simple minded man there
kept repeating go, go, go
and when he stopped
he was looking right at you
right at you

oh, i thank you for the roses
thank you for the ride
i caught with you
