In the car in front of me drives a young girl
She drives alone and she seems to be pretty
I don't know her name and I don't know her destination
I just notice, she drives with a lot of feeling

In the car in front of me drives a young girl
I’d like to know what she’s thinking right now
Is she listening to the same station or is her radio off?
Is she driving to a rendezvous or home?

What does that stupid guy behind me want? (Isn't she sweet?)
I wonder why he doesn’t overtake me (Such soft hair)
He's been constantly behind me for half an hour now
It’s already getting dark and he's driving without lights (So nice at 90)
He could be 100 kilometers away by now (I'm so glad)
Man, just overtake my 2CV (I feel really good)
Does he want to check me or kidnap me?
Or is he an undercover cop?

How nice that I finally have time today
I don’t have to race like a wild bull
I dream so in my thoughts, all alone and without limits
And wish the beautiful girl were with me

Now this situation is slowly making me uneasy (In victorious happiness)
I’ll take the very next exit (Today is a beautiful day)
There I'll hide behind some bushes
Damn, that will make me late getting home

Bye-bye, my beautiful girl, safe journey
She has her blinker on, here she exits
For me, the drive will also end in two hours
But you, my girl, I will never see again
