lyrics

I was 22 when I got my first bruise on a motorbike
I pressed my luck I fell and got stuck on the turnpike
I was only exits away, from seeing my lover again
but when I came to she was gone

Motor driven cycle
I lost my girl on two tires
The highway
Wasn't going my way
So I laid it down down on the ground

I woke up in the back of an ambulance
The lights on the ceiling gave me a feeling
that there was a chance
If I could only make it from here
I just might see my dear again
Cause' miles are the only thing
Keeping us apart

Motor driven cycle
I lost my girl on two tires
The highway
Wasn't going my way
So I laid it down down on the ground
I laid it down
