you look like an angel
your blue eyes leave a steel impression
my friends miss you coming around
people talking 'bout it all over town
i never knew you then i know you now
i don't know how - i don't know how
you sit in your house
you're writing out your will
he'll be there holding your baby
and i'll be there holding him still
he said "let me take you out so you can have some fun,
but can we take your car 'cause i don't have one?"
this is like a car crash
it's in my car and he's driving
he said "let's go for a ride
i'll take you anywhere you want to go?"
i asked if maybe i could drive
he said "no" - he said "no"
but can we take your car 'cause i don't have one
i don't know how
I love this song. I think it's about a girl who's in love with a guy who already has a baby with another girl. "He'll be there holding your baby/And I'll be there holding him still". I think it's either about a real car crash, in which the narrator, the boy, and the other woman were driving and only the other woman died, or about a metaphoric crash about how the guy is driving both these women's lives into the ground. I can't listen to this song enough!
