My Dream Car

I found this old car
Kinda beat up, but it’ll do
With a little love and care
It’ll be shining like new

I take a ride down a deserted highway
It’s long, alone, and narrow
It’s pointing me in some direction
Like a dark asphalt arrow          

I look in my rearview mirror
And I see laughter and tears
I’ve survived a lot
Through the last twenty years

In the shine of my headlights
I see what’s coming
Whether I like it or not
There’s no point in running

Inside I hear the radio
Revealing different melodies
And I sit there and I sing
My words soon to become memories

The road curves and winds
There’s just one last bend
My “Dream Car” is my life
And I’ll ride it out til the end
