"Won't you let me, well you know I can drive
Please let me take your car
Won't you please let me take your car"
Two policemen in the car behind
Not on duty but they stopped
And just before the car caught fire

Bravely they pulled her off
Bravely they pulled her off
Bravely they pulled her off
Bravely they pulled her off

If I were you Chrissie I'd rather

    General Comment:masnos is right. Here are the lyrics to Nina Nordenstam's A Walk in the Park,
    even though the booklet says they sampled her song "I See You Again" but ive listened to that song also and it sounds nothing like Violent Dreams. My guess is they took bits and pieces from the lyrics to make the chorus:

    A Walk in the Park:

    Chris was five when her mother died
    She was the only child
    Her mother used to say I'd spoil her too much
    She was my joy and pride
    Seems like yesterday ... I hear her voice
    Five hours left to go:
    "Won't you let me, well you know I can drive
    Please let me take your car
    Won't you please let me take your car"
    Two policemen in the car behind
    Not on duty but they stopped
    And just before the car caught fire
    Bravely they pulled her off
    Now days grow warmer Chris and spring is here
    You'll see it with my eyes
    If I were you Chrissie I'd rather not
    Take this to stay alive
    No I would rather die
    One of these days when the sun shines
    We'll go outside
    And listen to the birds in the park.

    General Comment:The chorus sounds as if it says:

    I wouldn't. Indeed this must be the end.

    General Comment:I hope cc actually asked her/paid some money to sample that track, they don't exactly have the best track record on that side of things.

    General Comment:at the minute. 1.30 to 2.15, it sounds as if to say: trust me
