This Charming Man
When in this charming car, this charming man
Why pamper life's complexity
When the leather runs smooth on the passenger's seat?
There Is a Light That Never Goes Out
And if a double-decker bus crashes into us
To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten ton truck kills the both of us
To die by your side, well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe............
Take it easy - The Eagles.
I took a ride in a limousine
I took a road I'd never been
I met a stranger by the way
His coat was torn but his eyes were clear
Steppin' in a slide zone - Moody Blues

"...The day I saw your white Mustang

And you're revvin' and revvin' and revvin' it up
And the sound, it was frightenin'
And you were gettin' a part of that

But you wont see me walking on
No side of the road..."
