Analysis of Speed Of Love
Glenn L Maluchnik 1962 (New York)
Going to hit the gas.
With plenty of beautiful girls to pass.
Driving 65 miles per hour.
With plenty of power.
In an hour I'll be with my girl.
As beautiful as can be.
My lover under the cover's.
Passing by cars on my way to my girl.
Stopped at this gas station for a coke.
Could of choked when I seen the woman behind the counter.
I left there in a hurry.
My girl is on my mind and I love her.
Those thoughts went through my head.
When I seen that woman behind the counter at the gas station.
I know I love my girl.
I stepped on the gas doing 75 real fast.
As I passed by a police car.
With lights flashing.
He pulled me over.
Gave me a speech.
Wrote me out a ticket.
As I drove on I thought of my girl.
Half hour away from her.
Going to pick her up.
Treat her like my princess .
Pulled in the driveway as I parked.
My girl climbed in.
Saying where have you been.
I said.
"I was coming down here to pick up my princess".
All I know is love comes around to those who wait.
Love you now and always.
