Driving
We don't go out driving anymore, you and I
 The lonely Cadillac just sits and waits,
 waiting for the drive
 Cruising with the windows down the radio up loud
 We've stopped now
 driving less and less
 together less and less
 There's no difference between shot gun or the backseat
 No excitement in speeding through the world together, at least not for you and me
 I'm sure the highway misses us
 The two free spirits without a care
 The long stretch of black feels empty now
 To be in the seat next to you,
 one last ride together
 Remembering the good 'ol days and the times when
 Planning the future, and how life's going to be
 Not acknowledging the difficulties
 Just knowing where we want to end up
 We miss each other so much we've lost contact
 and together we can't relate
 We look for ways out, trying to find others to speak with
 We're just not who we used to be
 Such little time has torn us apart, and not gently I might add
 So hard that the sight of the road is painful
 So hard that even I'd be willing to drive right now
 but it continues to wait
 Waiting for the drive
 That beat up Cadillac parked to the side
