I rode my bike to my stepsister's wedding

And in my backpack was designer bedding

And a gift certificate for a CD or for a cassette

A CD or cassette



I only but once met her new guy

And the good news to me is he seems shy

Maybe he'll help me find a new job

For this ride that I'm on is all done

All over and done



If the while this bore couldn't see me

And why does boredom at home see me so clearly? 

And like a flashlight and the campfire afade

Forgetting the plans that I made

The plans that I made



So I grabbed my bike I said goodbye and left the wedding

But I didn't get far for how cold it was getting

As I slept in a pile of leaves

I dreamt you there next to me

You were there next to me



As I shivered that night in the leaves

I dreamt you were warm next to me

You were warm next to me
