Mystery Girl

Marie Charlotte in the back of the Beetle, sleeping 
Young lovers, engaged on the road with their destiny
Suddenly through the fog… a cliff… a scream…dreadfully 
Two lovers resting in the Klein Karoo, not breathing
Easter Weekend, come every year, or so people say
Riding next to the road with her thumb on Good Friday
You might pick up the young mystery girl from Uniondale

Thanks Teddy, this is a true story that they made a movie from as well. I don't know if you noticed the syllable count for each line.
