What a day is this!
My love returned to me after
Weeks of lonesomeness and sorrow
Now for a weekend of bliss!

Coaxing the ignition to start,
I smile.
Oh, my love, it’s been awhile
Since you’ve been here with me.

I imagine us driving together through the mountains,
enjoying the company of one another.
I wish we could dash through the snow, but
Instead we’ll make due with lying near these water fountains.

Time passes, and you start to waste away.
Oh, my love, how I want you to stay with me.
Without you, where would I be?
Sitting quietly in an unmoving car, alone.

You’ve gone now, leaving behind a heart of glass,
I’ll miss you, but
I shall see you soon again.
Oh, my love, my full tank of gas.
