Lyrics:

A boy met a girl at a lone bus stop on highway 64
Took him a couple of minutes
To build up the courage to say
'I don't think we've met before'

'I'm headed west, out to Thunder Bay
I wouldn't mind a friend for the ride'
With electric eyes, she seemed to say
'I suppose I have a little time'

'Your chariot awaits', he said with a smirk
As he offered her the window seat
'It's a long ride, but I'll try to make it worth it
Unless there's someone you'd rather meet'

She looked up from the book she held
Studying his careful pose
With a hand on his knee, he began to melt
She said 'this is the seat I chose'

It all starts with today
When boy meets girl, they drive the day away

Destination confirmed, their purpose unknown
As the rubber meets the asphalt
'You got the city for your own
But where you gonna go
Your indecision isn't your fault'

'Might as well let me show you around
I can show you all my secret spots'
He grabs her hand, puts her feet on the ground
And brings her to the parking lot

'What's the plan?', she asked the man
Who appeared to the know the ins and outs
'Dinner first and then back to mine
Unless you're having any doubts'

Embers sparked on each side of her face
He convinced her with his elegance
She fell back to Earth, giving up the chase
And she nodded with a hesitance

It all starts with today
When boy meets girl, they drive the day away

He fell in love on the 14th day
And he hasn't gone back since
She forgot what life was like before
Together, they burned all the evidence

Memories are just the ghosts of now
And he's haunted by his happiness
The smile fades under a furrowed brow
Because he can't seem to reminisce

'What's wrong? Is it something I said?'
Her words, he could almost feel
Paranoia had the best of her
But he's coming in for the steal

'You're just fine, in fact you couldn't be better
You're everything that I had dreamt
You are caution and opal,
The faith of the hopeful
And everything it represents'

It all starts with today
When boy meets girl, they drive the day away

A boy met a girl at a lone bus stop on highway 64
