VACATION IN TEXAS
 
While on vacation, my car broke down.
In the desert, there`s no service station around.
With delusion from hindsight, I was feeling blue.
There was no oasis I could get to.
A traveller named Lily gave me a ride.
With surrender, I gave up my pride.
Lily, 'What`s your reason for traveling alone?'
She took a sip of water and said, 'I`m not alone.'
It was getting dark, she turned her headlights on.
Now, you`ll have to figure the rest out on your own.
