Valentine's Day

I'm driving a big lazy car rushin' up the highway in the dark
 I got one hand steady on the wheel and one hand's tremblin' over my heart
 It's pounding baby like it's gonna bust right on through
 And it ain't gonna stop till I'm alone again with you
 A friend of mine became a father last night
 When we spoke in his voice I could hear the light
 Of the skies and the rivers the timberwolf in the pines
 And that great jukebox out on Route 39
 They say he travels fastest who travels alone
 But tonight I miss my girl mister tonight I miss my home
 Is it the sound of the leaves
 Left blown by the wayside
 That's got me out here on this spooky old highway tonight
 Is it the cry of the river
 With the moonlight shining through
 That ain't what scares me baby
 What scares me is loosin' you
 They say if you die in your dreams you really die in your bed
 But honey last night I dreamed my eyes rolled straight back in my head
 And God's light came shinin' on through
 I woke up in the darkness scared and breathin' and born anew
 It wasn't the cold river bottom I felt rushing over me
 It wasn't the bitterness of a dream that didn't come true
 It wasn't the wind in the grey fields I felt rushing through my arms
 No no baby it was you
 So hold me close honey say you're forever mine
 And tell me you'll be my lonely valentine
