I strongly urge you to go and buy every Rosie Thomas CD in existence. She's marvelous! I've been so in love with this song for as long as I can remember, but today, it just felt better. Every time I hear it, I just want to hop in my car and leave. It's amazing how perfectly she describes like my every desire in this one song. So, I've provided you with the lyrics, which I really, really, REALLY want you to read. They'll touch your heart, I promise. (: AND, AND, AND, if you go here:

You can here Miss Thomas actually sing it herself.! I love how sweet and innocent her voice is when she talks. But boy, when she sings, it's amazing! Okay, enough jibber jabbering, GO WATCH THE VIDEO, and sing along if you want too:
Yeah I've had enough of love, it feels good to give up, so good to be good to myself. I'm gonna get on the highway with no destination, and plenty of vision in mind. And I'm gonna drive to the ocean, go skinny dipping, blow kisses to venus and mars. I'm gonna stop at every bar and flirt with the cowboys in front of their girlfriends. It's gonna be so grand. It's gonna be just like my wedding day.
So much for love, I guess I've been wrong but it's all right 'cause I'm moving on. I'm gonna drive over hills, over mountains, and canyons, and boys that keep bringing me down. I'm gonna drive under skyline and sunshine, drink good wine in vineyards, and get asked to dance. I'm gonna be carefree and let nothing pass my by, never ever again. It's gonna be so grand. It's gonna be just like my wedding day."
