In Anton's new song "My car and me" the car becomes the best friend.

"It's a car song," Anton says. "The car is personified in it." The song is about being carefree on the roads in your car and enjoying life. "My wife, Riekie, loves driving and going down the highway," Anton says, adding, "Especially in Germany." Driving, he says, is not excitement for her, but relaxation."

Anton wasn't thinking about a specific car when he came up with the lyrics to this new feel-good song.

Anton presented the song during his second digital concert, it is song number 9:

Songtext: My car and me !

Lyrics and music: Anton van Doornmalen

 

Your steering wheel loosely in my hand

As we drive through the country land

Am I driving you, or you driving me?

Together we’ll be

We are a strong team, as you see

To hit the road, I’m gonna need your key

The key to start on our drive

When will we arrive?

We can go where we want to

On a long and winding road

We’ll drive through the night

Till we see the morning light

It feels great and free

It gives me peace of mind

Driving with you is so…… relaxing for me

I feel very safe and at ease

Neither of us ever disagrees

Always waiting for me

You continue tirelessly

Do you know what we sometimes need?

Driving where there is no limit on speed

On a bright summer holiday

On the German highway

We can go where we want to

On a long and winding road

We’ll drive through the night

Till we see the morning light

It feels great and free

It gives me peace of mind

Driving with you is so …… relaxing for me

La lalalalalalaaaaaai

It’s wonderful to drive It gives me peace of mind

Driving with you Is so relaxing for me

With the radio on I sing along

Often very loudly – an expression of joy
