Chasing Down Moments

Caught a sundog rainbow 69 east of Flint
- drove it all the way to Yspilanti.
My heart sang songs that it already knew
As words waltzed loud from the car stereo
That’s how it’s always been for me, out on the road
Chasing down moments away from my load.

If I thought too long about any one thing
Melancholy would threaten the buzz
So I just kept driving and singing along
And thinking how good it could be
That’s how it always is, when I’m out on that road
Chasing down moments away from my load.

Not too surprised by the pile that I find
I only left it a few hours ago, knew in my soul
that I’d come back to see, it waiting there for me
only smaller, as it should be.
That’s how it goes, just back from the road,
After well travelled moments, away from my load.
