Contemplating the leather steering wheel
Smelling the stale wine of the night
We consider the carbon metaphoric ideal
Darling, a reminder of the consistent oversight
Whispering the long forgotten smile
Holding onto absent futures of the night
We becomes I, the commonplace exile
My hands on the steering wheel, something isn't quite
Going, going, going, going, gone
Going, going, going, going, gone
My thoughts turn to the contingent past
What could have been, should have been unsurpassed
Images flashing, a reimagined thrill
The warmth of your hands, the pull of your laugh
It's going, going, going towards the inevitable break
The same old yellow jet stream beam
But, darling, it's just a drive and a daydream
Darling, it's just a drive and a daydream
Tasting the cherry lipstick on my lips
Pulling the words right out of my mouth
Our falter begins, destroys the partnership
We becomes I, my mind not quite
Going, going, going, going, gone
Going, going, going, going, gone
My thoughts turn to the contingent past
What could have been, should have been unsurpassed
Images flashing, a reimaged thrill
The warmth of your hands, the pull of your laugh
It's going, going, going towards the inevitable break
The same old yellow jet stream theme
But, darling, it's just a drive and a daydream
Darling, it's just a drive and a daydream
And a daydream!
