Strangers In A Car

Marc Cohn

There's a stranger in a car 
Driving down your street 
Acts like he knows who you are 
Slaps his hand on the empty seat and says 
"Are you gonna get in 
Or are you gonna stay out?"
Just a stranger in a car 
Might be the one they told you about 

Well you never were one for cautiousness 
You open the door 
He gives you a tender kiss 
And you can't even hear them no more --
All the voices of choices 
Now only one road remains 
And strangers in a car 
Two hearts, two souls, tonight, two lanes 

You don't know where you're goin' 
You don't know what you're doin' 
Hell it might be the highway to heaven 
And it might be the road to ruin 
But this is a song 
For strangers in a car 
Baby maybe that's all 
We really are 

Strangers in a car 
(Driving down your street) 
Just strangers in a car 
(Driving down your street) 
Strangers in a car
