The Car That Came By

The Car That Came By

Woke up one day;
Good news came to his ears;
His gonna be a daddy;
In the coming New Year;
Work hard he did;
For the child yet to arrive;
Went to work in a car;
Like the car that's gonna come by~

Months and months passed by;
His wife's belly went so huge like;
Oh my God, I don't know what;
But in it is his hope;
For a new life;
A life so complete;
His smile so grand;
Like the car that's gonna come by~

Another week and it is the day;
The day he waited so eagerly;
The day when his burden multiplies;
But he does not care;
No he doesn't;
Cause along with it;
His happiness will multiply;
If just the car did not come by~

That night he worked late;
Overtime again;
But he didn't mind;
No he didn't;
For with it he can get money;
Money for the young one;
And also for his wife;
If just the car didn't come by~

His wife called that very night;
Telling him "she" is gonna arrive;
Hurriedly, he kept;
All his works behind;
Rush to the nearest hospital;
Which he felt like miles;
Where "she" will soon arrive;
If just the car didn't come by~

Ambulance drove fast;
Turning left and right;
Through the silent night;
The journey so smooth;
Just like his journey alike;
He drove even faster;
The destination the same;
Where the car will eventually come by~

There in front;
A cross road lay still;
In the silent night;
No car pass by;
But from one side;
Ambulance fast approaching;
And from the other;
The car that came by~

So fast the car went;
Almost collide with the ambulance;
But the driver didn't see;
No, he didn't;
He was too eager to even think;
That the ambulance will never make it;
To the destination and;
His car is the car that came by~

Reached the hospital he did;
Looking for his wife;
Overheard a news;
The ambulance never made it;
Because of a car;
The car so grand;
The car so fast;
The car that came by~

Later did he knew;
The worst news ever;
His very own car;
That very grand car;
That very fast car;
That very car he went to work in;
That car he drove;
Was the car that came by~
