Ode to a loss

For you my friend..... for you my friend

Speeding through the freeways

Cheesy rap songs

Long drives through a city's neon lights

For you my friend...for you my friend

Flowers that brought on a smile

Car washes infused with sheer fright

Soupy garlic laden food munched in delight

For you my friend...for you my friend

Action flicks never watched before

Fruity white wine over long hours

Nights home wasn't nice to return to alone

For you my friend...for you my friend

I drove with courage and laughed out loud

I pushed my way through unknown crowds

And saw a city unlike before

For you my friend... for you my friend

Yogurt is no longer just passe

Songs on the radio seem more than just a tune

And driving around has become an excuse to look out for you
