Picture this
A couple in a car riding
Not a big fancy car, nor a sexy expensive car
just an ordinary car, but it looks nice and cool maybe
because the couple look nice and cool
and are gifted in their singular way
Picture a couple in a car riding forward
Not so fast, nor so slow
Most of the time the couple knows where to go
Sometimes the couple don’t know where they are heading for
It doesn’t matter
Riding in a car, not knowing where to go
It’s fun, it’s a pain, it’s a joy, it’s a joy and a pain
That’s life
That’s how the world goes
They are just moving forward, running, driving, cruising
through some cities, countryside, rivers, and mountains
sometimes lakes and tunnels and seaside
It doesn’t matter whether they are riding in a car in their homeland
or in a foreign land
Riding in a car, not knowing where the hell they are
It sometimes happens
but it doesn’t matter
That’s also life
It’s fun, it’s a pain, it’s a joy
It's the joy and pain of life
They see a lot of things
trees and greens and streets
streets and boulevards and buildings
houses and people
People are like trees on the move
They are a part of an interesting landscape, of a strange landscape
The couple sees days and nights
They are not extraordinary things, nor incredible things
just some interesting things
some funny, sad, joyful, painful things
Sometimes they see rain, clouds, and crowds in the rain
They see mountains and lakes in the silent mist
They see blue skies through the ravine of skyscrapers
and illuminations spread over the city at night
They see lots of lights, gorgeous, delicious lights
They see solid darkness too
Then the light of day
Picture this
A couple in a car riding forward, always forward
They are us
You and me
