lyrics

I saw your car pulling over
You slowed down, stopped next to me
Pouring rain, you opened the door
Heard a song. I heard you sing.
And I got in and you drove fast
“What’s that sign”, I heard you ask
Someone said “Let’s turn right here!”
We spinned around and heard a laugh

Just tell your brother to stay out of this
Tell your sister, we’ll meet again
Say hi to your friends, tell them I’m fine
Say no more, let’s get a ride

A yellow dog was sitting in the back,
Wearing a worn out suit
He was trying to make an effort
We asked why he was in such a good mood
He laughed loud, told us to turn around
“What’s that sign?” I heard you ask
The dog said “Let’s turn right here”
I turned to you but you were gone
