Black ice on the mountain drive on this wet night in July
What's that just around the corner, just around the bend?
Put Chelsea Girls on, leave at five
To the hide out off we drive
It was a foggy night like this, yeah it was one just like this
We used to sleep under the stars
We used to dream under the stars
It was the best that life could ever be
Things were said we shouldn't say
You lost your nerve, then drove away
What's that just around the corner
Lurking just around the bend?
We used to sleep under the stars
We used to dream under the stars
It was the best that life could ever be
Where the mountain meets the shore
No likem lusim yu no moa, no moa, no moa no moa
A ship container on the road
From the coalmine near the shore
What's that lurking round the corner
Lurking just around the bend?
All the dreams she couldn't save
All the years she threw away
Beneath the tears she couldn't see
Black ice took her away from me
Black ice took her away from me
We used to sleep under the stars
We used to dream under the stars
It was the best that life could ever be
We used to sleep under the stars
We used to dream under the stars
It was the best that life could ever be
