The sunset is in the past
The sunset rests on the back window panel of your car
It is behind us and soft and orange.
The humming of the engine
Might be loud
But on the inside of the car
It sounds soft
Every little bump
Doesn't have much impact
Comforting to the mind
Keep your music playing
Humming
It keeps my body in the present
Daydreaming about the past
Living in this moment
I love a good car ride
The music moves me
I'm sitting with no shoes
My clothes fit me well
They're casual and comfortable
Casual and comfortable, the way someone should feel
Before making decisions
My hands placed
on my comfy pants
and Indian styled sitting
The way to sit with ease
I count the change you keep in the ashtray of your car
Keep tapping the steering wheel
Keep my body in the present
The soft orange sun is tickling the back of your neck
It's peering through the black lined back window of your car
It's a gentle quiet
The engine is soft, the music is fogged and the sun caresses the back of your neck
Long drives
moving past houses and feeling at home
Long drives
I look forward.
