Marissa Nadler
Said Goodbye to That Car
[Verse 1]
Said goodbye to that car
That took a bullet in the roof in New Haven
That saw our sad estrangement
Idling there on the pavement
[Chorus 1]
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
Said goodbye to that car in the cul-de-sac
Said goodbye to that car, took the plates off the back
[Verse 2]
Pulled off the charms and the beads
Unceremoniously
It was the end of an era
I kicked off the rearview mirror
[Bridge]
From the first day it run and
To the rust stains in the cracks
I watched the heap of metal lose its sun
As the sky turned black
[Chorus 2]
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
Said goodbye to that car as the sky turned black
Said goodbye to that car, took the plates off the back
[Outro]
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
119,657 and the engine blew
119,657 and I thought of you
119,657 and I thought of you
