Between the Ditches

My favourite place, in this world,
Behind the wheel, with my girl,
My precious cargo, safe in the back,
Heading down a country track,
Eager eyes take in the sights
for the only first time
Split seconds last forever
In memories we all can share

Chorus
It's those little trips make all the difference
Learn the lessons the journey teaches
Miles and Miles of skinny inches
Keep her between the ditches

The lines of trees form a tunnel
The sun and shadows put on a light show
The long acre and pulling over
for a pit stop, No, we're not there yet
And here's to you, my co-pilot
Even though you can't read a map
If we take a turn that's wrong
I'll always be right where I belong,

Chorus

The sensations of the present
The vibrations of the past
The road stretches out before us
Then vanishes oh so fast
Check the mirror, I'll always be there
But this life just wouldn't stand still
My eyes are getting a little heavy
Time for you now to take the wheel,

Chorus
