Bruce Springsteen: Valentine's Day

Im driving a big lazy car rushin up the highway in the dark
I got one hand steady on the wheel and one hands tremblin over my heart
Its pounding baby like its gonna bust right on through
And it aint gonna stop till Im alone again with you

A friend of mine became a father last night
When we spoke in his voice I could hear the light
Of the skies and the rivers the timberwolf in the pines
And that great jukebox out on Route 39
They say he travels fastest who travels alone
But tonight I miss my girl mister tonight I miss my home

Is it the sound of the leaves
Left blown by the wayside
Thats got me out here on this spooky old highway tonight
Is it the cry of the river
With the moonlight shining through
That aint what scares me baby
What scares me is loosin you

They say if you die in your dreams you really die in your bed
But honey last night I dreamed my eyes rolled straight back in my head
And Gods light came shinin on through
I woke up in the darkness scared and breathin and born anew
It wasnt the cold river bottom I felt rushing over me
It wasnt the bitterness of a dream that didnt come true
It wasnt the wind in the grey fields I felt rushing through my arms
No no baby it was you
So hold me close honey say youre forever mine
And tell me youll be my lonely valentine Im driving a big lazy car rushin up the highway in the dark

And it aint gonna stop till Im alone again with you
