Array ( [sid] => 93413 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I’ve never felt as alone as the moment immediately before she arrived [time] => 2005-05-05 18:50:44 [hometext] => "Far From Here" [bodytext] =>
The day was worth getting up for
I can assure you that for sure
I had no clue when I woke up
And headed straight out that tiny door

Keys in hand, I started the car
I stopped at the local coffee bar
My drug of choice, a promising morning
A shot of caffeine to my heart so warming

The freeway was deserted up top
I flew by four sleeping patrolling cops!
A hundred miles an hour in my beat up ol’ Chevy
Before I knew it, I was at her house already

I honked my horn, (chivalry is officially dead)
I relied on my comb to save my precious hair
I’ve never felt as alone as the moment immediately before she arrived
When I stared at her and she smiled a reply, my pulse was suddenly revived

I’m sure you have asked it many times yourself
But, “Where has she been my entire life”
This was the pitiful unoriginal premonition I felt
A favor for my pal, I was only there to give her a ride

As I stepped out to help her inside the car
She pointed to a suitcase, “would you be so kindl?”
She had wanted to leave, she didn’t care where, “any where far”
“Take me to the nearest airport, and please don't waste time!”

And as I began to wonder, if I should have stayed in bed late
An angel thrust upon me, just to have me drop her off at heavens gate
Suddenly as if divine, the traffic that deserted me, began to intertwine
Stuck in the parking lot of the rush home, my angel and I began this song

After very little conversation, and even less talk
We woulda’ held hands if we had some where to walk
We fell in love on that Chevy ride worth taking
Pledging our honesty or shamefully become forsaken

We reached the gate, checked her suitcase on the flight
Donated the care to a homeless man, one too many sleepless nights
“Two Tickets for Two”, we demanded so polite and sincere
We were going anywhere, anywhere far from here

You could put this in the "story" category. It's very engaging and pulls the reader in. Nice job!
