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
