Car Ride

I picked you up today  
after getting off work on this beautiful day  
I drove you to our spot  
your tongue hanging out like you were hot  
I looked over and a tear came to my eye  
you looked at me as if to ask why  
I wanted to tell you our last ride was soon  
maybe September maybe the end of June  
I had so much I wanted to say  
but all I could manage was "I love you, okay?"  
you sat there enjoying the incoming breeze  
as my pain began to ease  
I know you love me too  
I'm your papa and you're my Jenny roo  
so I know when the time does arrive  
our car ride memories will keep me alive  
and though my heart aches to let you go  
the love we shared will forever glow.
