I was in a new relationship… only a month old… and it was Christmas Eve… he was in Chicago, I was in California… we were both with family. Neither of us had very much money after buying for everyone else in our life…

I woke up and in my email was a rapidshare link to download a file… it was a Video of him… “just a little something, just for you… just messing around… missing you… & hoping to see you… “… and then just pictures of him & me set to DreamGirl by the Dave Matthews Band.

he’d spent no money… only time, a few digital pictures, and a song… and it’s still the best Christmas present I’ve ever gotten… I cried “love” tears… happy tears… for the first time ever.

My eyes still get wet every time I hear that song, even tho the relationship was short and ended badly.

I would dig a hole all the way to China
Unless of course I was there
then I’d dig my way home
If by diggin’ I could steal
the wind from the sails
of the greedy men who ruled the world

Still you’re my best friend
And after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin’, I was Dreamin’ of a
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

I was feelin’ like a creep
As I watched you asleep
Face down in the grass,
in the park, in the middle
of a hot afternoon
Your top was untied
And I thought how nice
It’d be to follow the sweat down your spine

You’re like my best friend
aw after a good, good drunk
You and me wake up and make love after a deep sleep
Where I was Dreamin’, I was Dreamin’ of a
Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

Caught by a wave
my back to the ocean
it knocks me off my feet and
just as I find my footing
here you come again
Dreamgirl, aww Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl, Dreamgirl

*Deep in, Deep in
Deep in, Deep in
