Built For Speed - Phil Manzanera

I drive out to the edge of town in the night

I drive over the bumpy roads in the cold

Hang on it’s a long way to go

The rhythm of all that jive keeps me alive

Far away from the long parade ready made

Hold on it’s a hard way to go

Some talk of paradise but I can’t say I have been there

Some dream of heaven every day

I have been there

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

The feeling is so fantastic 'cos she’s built for speed

I reach out to the dark terrain in the rain

The headlights try to bring me down turn me round

Hang on it’s a hard way to go

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

The feeling is so fantastic 'cos she’s built for speed

Some talk of paradise but I can’t say I have been there

Some dream of heaven every day

I have been there

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

The feeling is so fantastic 'cos she’s built for speed

Some talk of paradise but I can’t say I have been there

Some dream of heaven nearly every day

I have been there

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

Ooh ahh in my car, oooh ahh in my car

The feeling is so fantastic 'cos she’s built for speed
