Who's gonna drive you home tonight?

Who's gonna tell you when... It's too late
Who's gonna tell you things... Aren't so great
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight

Who's gonna pick you up... When you fall
Who's gonna hang it up... When you call
Who's gonna pay attention... To your dreams
Who's gonna plug their ears... When you scream
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight

Who's gonna hold you down... When you shake
Who's gonna come around... When you break
You can't go on
Thinking nothing's wrong
Who's gonna drive you home tonight

"Drive" - The Cars

Today marks the day that I return to life as a single man - a day that I never thought I would see... Certainly not 492 days after I stood in that church and said those vows to her. The days of analyzing, trying to figure out what went wrong, and whatever else are over - time to shake hands and move on.

If there is anything that I am going to wonder, it is this:
Who that person is that will fulfill her needs... keep her satisfied, keep her happy.

Certainly no easy task - I am living proof of someone who tried and didn't fair so well.

One day sooner or later I will get back some sense of a normal life without thinking about you, and maybe we can truly be those friends that you say you want us to be.

In the meantime, I truly hope you find someone to drive you home.

I'm officially in another car now.
