Stolen Car Lyrics

I wish I knew what I should say
I wish I knew that you would stay
I wish I knew how to live
I wish that I had more to give
I wish I knew what you were thinking
Before I start sinking
And drift away

Just like a thief in a fast stolen car
You’ve been running straight for the sun

I wish that I could take your lead
I wish that I was all you need
I wish that I could understand
I wish that I was more a man
I wish I knew why I was waiting
Before I start fading
And drift away

Just like a thief in a fast stolen car
You’ve been running straight for the sun

I hope I know what I should say
I hope I know that you will stay
I hope I never drift away

Just like a thief in a fast stolen car
You’ve been running straight for the sun
And I’m just like a page in a book no one’s reading
I’m hiding here from the sun
I’ll be hiding here from the sun

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
