night drive
yellowhead highway

how bright the stars
how dark the night
how long have i been sleeping?
sleep overtook me on my westward flight
held me in its keeping
i had a dream; it seemed so real
its p-ssing left me shaking
i saw you’re here behind the wheel
on this very road i’m taking

hurtling westward through the prairie night
under the spell of motion
your eyes were clear and bright in the dashboard light
dreaming of the western ocean
the dusty towns left far behind
mountains drawing ever nearer
your face was then as it was tonight
ever young
ever clearer

i know this road
and its every curve
where the hills commence their climbing
we rested here
if my memory serves
the northern lights were shining
you lit a smoke
we shared some wine
we watched the sky in wonder
your laughter echoes after all this time
in that high and wild blue yonder

i don’t know why i write these lines
it’s not like i could send you the letter
it’s that i love your more after all this time
it’s that i wish i’d shown you better
years have slipped
beneath my wheels
dwindling in my rear view mirror
as time has p-ssed
your life has seemed less real
but these night drives bring you nearer

so tonight i’ll wish upon these stars
as they rise upward to guide me
that i’ll see you here just as you are
now, as then, beside me
scares me how the years have flown
like the leaves drift in september
they’ve lost sight of you as your legacy’s grown
but this road and i
we remember
