Counting blue cars lyrics this mysterious song is about a man who is on a walk with his child
We count only blue cars, skip the cracks in the street and ask many questions, like children often do we said, tell me all your thoughts on god 'cause i would really like to meet her and ask her why we're who we are tell me all your thoughts on god 'cause i am on my way to see her so tell me, am i very far, am i very far now?
The phrase counting blue cars never shows up in the lyric, and the only time something close to it appears is in the second verse with the line, we count only blue cars. originally it was tell me all your thoughts, jr richards explained in his songfacts interview. Dishwalla ended up with one big hit, and it's a good thing that counting blue cars made such an impact in the 90s.
