lyrics
(instrumental) Wrote it on the cab wall in pen, above the sun visor December fourteenth. A date. An actual number. Been driving under it for four months now, every day (every day) It's the first promise I've made that had edges She hasn't mentioned it (hasn't mentioned it) But she said "the fourteenth" back to me once, testing it The fourteenth (the fourteenth) Not soon, not sometime, not when things settle The fourteenth And I'll be there if I have to walk I've turned down three loads that would've run me past it Cost me maybe two grand and I did not care once Turns out "soon" was free and a date costs money (costs money, costs money) That's why I said soon for eighteen years. It was free. Her kids will be there. I've met them twice. Twice, in eleven years. The fourteenth. I'll make it three. (drums return, gently) The fourteenth (the fourteenth) Not soon, not sometime, not when things settle The fourteenth And I'll be there if I have to walk (the fourteenth...)
