I stole his Silverado Candy apple red And you were laughing In the high beams When you introduced yourself And my younger girl smiled When you said "The stars of tomorrow Are brighter every night" If I can remember The rest of your story right Out of Long Island On down to Baltimore Your sister had a family Out on the eastern shore "The stars of tomorrow Are brighter every night" If I can remember The rest of your story right "Oh he can have The pool and the cars But I'm taking this Ford And a couple of credit cards" The Singapore birds And the wedding photographs The silver, the rings, the dreams And the broken glass" But I'm just the singer And you're just in my heart I wish you the best of luck I wish you a brand new start Oh the island slept And the moon had set A beam down the highway Tapping the dash In a cool fluorescent flash
