I took the Polaroid

down in my room

I'm pretty sure you

have a new girlfriend

It's not as if

I don't like you

It just makes me sad

whenever I see it

'Cause I like to be

gone most of the time

And you like to be

home most of the time

If I stay in one

place I lose my mind

I'm a pretty impossible

lady to be with

Joey never met a bike

that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby

that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the

books that I recommended

Even if he didn't

I wouldn't be offended

I had a dream that

I had to drive to Madison

To deliver a painting

for some silly reason

I took a wrong turn and

ended up in Michigan

Paul Baribeau took me

To the giant tire swing

Gave me a push and

he started singing

I sang along while

I was swinging

The sound of our voices

Made us forget everything

That had ever

hurt our feelings

Joey never met a bike

that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby

that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the

books that I recommended

Even if he didn't

I wouldn't be offended

Now I'm home for less

than twenty four hours

That's hardly time

to take a shower

Hug my family

And take your

picture off the wall

Check my email

write a song

And make a

few phone calls

Before it's time

to leave again

I've got one hand on

the steering wheel

One waving out

the window

If I'm a spinster

for the rest of my life

My arms will keep me

warm on cold

and lonely nights

Joey never met a bike

that he didn't wanna ride

And I never met a Toby

that I didn't like

Scotty liked all of the

books that I recommended

Even if he didn't
