Day 588 - Long Distance Ride

There's a train leaving town,
The whistle blowing like the wind,
Begging me to jump on in.

They promise to carry me closer to you,
Down the hills, across the tracks,
Chugging forward, never looking back.

The long journey will give me time to think,
About the completeness I feel with you,
The way your kisses make me feel brand new.

Like the pistons, my heart will be pounding,
I'll begin grow impatient from sitting so long,
Day dreaming myself back to where I belong.

When I hear the brakes start to engage and squeak,
I'll run to the end of the car and swing the door wide
My smiling face will not be able to hide.

I'll scan the crowds looking for a flower dress,
My pretty Mizo girl come to be by my side,
Never again will I be alone on a long-distance ride.
