Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


I long for the girl I once knew,
The girl who was my only one.
The girl I could tell everything to,
Before we came undone.
The girl who caught my wondering eye,
To show me the world in her perception.
The girl who promised me she would stay,
She would stay and never leave, never leave.
Well, I'll just drive around in my car,
And watch as my tears fill up and my gas runs down.
I hope I don't run out too soon.
And I won't come back until you're at my door,
Knocking for the times when I knew you.
'Cause you left me.
The girl who led me back on course,
When I strayed down the wrong path.
And all the places I could go.
Now she's gone and I'm lost in an abandoned place,
With no insight on where to head.
I can't go in a random direction.
With the sunny days, (With the sunny days)
By myself, (By myself)
With no one to hold. (With no one to hold)
Well, I'll just drive around in my car,
And watch as my tears fill up and my gas runs down.
I hope I don't run out too soon.
And I won't come back until you're at my door,
Knocking for the times when I knew you.
'Cause you left me.
With the sunny days, (With the sunny days)
By myself, (By myself)
With no one to hold. (With no one to hold)
Emotions keep stirring in my heart.
And sweetheart, I need you now.
Well, I'll just drive around in my car,
And watch as my tears fill up and my gas runs down.
I hope I don't run out too soon.
And I won't come back until you're at my door,
Knocking for the times when I knew you.
And I need you now.
Well, I'll just drive around in my car,
And watch as my tears fill up and my gas runs down.
I hope I don't run out too soon.
And I won't come back until you're at my door,
Knocking for the times when I knew you.
'Cause you left me.
