Could it be this:

Bodie felt a flush of warmth spreading out from somewhere deep within. "What do you want, then?"

"Someone to get into the car with." Doyle spoke so softly that Bodie held the R/T tight to his ear to hear. "On the long drive back to Town, all I could think of was how good it would feel to have some company--not just then, not just there, but all the time, everywhere I turned around. Someone to laugh with when things are good, someone to hold tight when they're not. Someone to share all the little things with, to help bear all the large things, someone I could watch fall asleep beside me, and wake up to in the morning. Someone I could talk to, not have to talk to, agree with, argue with, someone I could rise to the heights with or go through hell with--all of it, everything, good and bad. I want someone to share my life with, all the way up to the stars, and all the way down to the nails on the coffin." Doyle paused. "But mostly, I just want someone to be with on the long drive home."

I want someone to share my life with, all the way up to the stars, and all the way down to the nails on the coffin. How I love that line. Melts me a little.

The line you quoted followed by a pause and then "But mostly, I just want someone to be with on the long drive home." was what hammered the story...and the author's name into my head.
