I'm a stranger with the one I love
She's so beautiful, she's sent from above
I'm in love with the beauty of my youth
When I met you I was half a man
I couldn't walk but together we ran
I know we can

She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets
She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets

I remember when it wasn't this way
You were complete when you found me astray
Thank you, you're here today
In your arms, I'm the king of the road
In your heart I'm forever at home
I'm alive when I lose myself in you

She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets
She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets

Then you come to sunlight in your hair
A moment out of time, world without a care
And when it's crowding in, you take me far away
When you're singing la la la la

She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets
She don't need no bicycle gasoline
She just needs her violets
