1
you turned to me and asked me if i'd always be your boy
2
as we drove across the river into western illinois
3
and on the railroad bridge, half a mile of solid steel
4
wheels were spitting out sparks, scraping at the rails
5
wind in your hair all right sunset spilling through the rear window
6
your white t-shirt hugging your shoulders, beaded with sweat
7
on the day that i become so forgetful that all of this melts away
8
i will burn all the calanders that counted the years down to such a worthless day
9
as we walked across the parking lot toward the motel office
10
we were walking with a benediction on us
11
light was everywhere, the building stood against the sky
12
like a monument to desperation 2 floors high
13
a mile and a half from the river we went back to the car to get our overnight bags sunset spilling through your earrings, all over your body
14
when we shut the motel door behind us, we knew we'd hit the motherlode
15
on the day that i forget you, i hope my heart explodes
