Stolen Car

I met a little girl and I settled down
In a little house out on the edge of town
We got married, and swore we'd never part
Then little by little we drifted from each other's hearts

At first I thought it was just restlessness
That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep
In the end it was something more I guess
That tore us apart and made us weep

And I'm driving a stolen car
Down on Eldridge Avenue
Each night I wait to get caught
But I never do

She asked if I remembered the letters I wrote
When our love was young and bold
She said last night she read those letters
And they made her feel one hundred years old

And I'm driving a stolen car
On a pitch black night
And I'm telling myself I'm gonna be alright
But I ride by night and I travel in fear
That in this darkness I will disappear

Ainda corria o ano de 1979, quando fitas com gravações de músicas do álbum "The River", foram roubadas alimentando o mercado pirata.
Uma época onde os concertos ao vivo chegavam a ultrapassar as três horas de duração.
Apesar de tudo, sai em Novembro de 1980 um duplo álbum cheio de canções intimistas, uma visita ao passado de Springsteen.
