She met me at the station 'cause I'm comin' home on my leave
I'll let her use my XKE 'cause she could drive around & think of me hee hee
Baby, I'm home, you meet surprise, it's on your face
Where's the old crowd? Do they still hang out at the pizza place?
A flash of suspicion, to mind & no way of kissin'

CHORUS:
(Watch your step, Sarah Jane, I'll get you yet) Sarah Jane
(Watch your step, Sarah Jane, I'll get you yet)
Sarah Jane, if my car could only talk to me
If my car could only talk to me
It would tell me 'bout you, baby
We walked, baby

When I cleaned my car I found pictures from the penny arcade
& my eyes dried
Underneath the seat I found a cigarette lighter
Engraved "Love you, baby--Sarah Jane"
Since I've been home, I found evidence of a love affair
Tickets to the drive-in show, I'll prove at once; this I swear
Don't make excuses & cry; I can't stand girls that lie

(chorus)

(These eyes, these eyes, these eyes these eyes)

(chorus)

We walked some streets to red, white & blue
I swear my memory tellin' me that we were through
Breakin' up is so hard to do; walk away before I start crying too
