From memories to condensed anecdotes; it lives and breathes as a partner. The chorus is a wick into the emotional bank of stories that he has for his vehicle. It is a powerful tale, one that you can reminisce about forever. Recollection only makes the fondness stronger, and this song proves it with an elegant, innocent tone.
