[Verse 1]
Walking out, walking out in this cold winter light
And the pretty girls, all the pretty ones have tears in their eyes
And I can't speak because I don't have you here by my side
And I'll always be, I'll always be the girl that was denied
[Chorus]
Driving my car in the night
(Honeymooning alone)
The cans on the road in tail light
(Honeymooning alone)
And your empty seat by my side
(Honeymooning alone)
If I drive far enough will I find my love?
My love, my love
My love, my love
[Verse 2]
Crying now, crying as the stars fail to shine
Pining now, pining for your warmth and your smile
And I waited all, I waited all my life for this night
But there's no moon, the moon has turned out all the lights
[Chorus]
Driving my car in the night
(Honeymooning alone)
The cans on the road in tail light
(Honeymooning alone)
And your empty seat by my side
(Honeymooning alone)
If I drive far enough will I find my love?
My love, my love
My love, my love
My love, my love
My love, my love
[Outro]
My love
My love

Unfortunately, her fiancé is killed on the way to the wedding, in a crash. It’s really melodramatic, so she embarks on this honeymoon alone, on this journey where the very person is gonna help her fulfil this marriage ritual that’s been taken away. I was just reall...
