On a Highway, Just Before Dawn

These are some of my musings after a fun, all-night event. I was driving home from the beach just before dawn. She was a schoolteacher.

The song isn't that great, but... whatever. Another page in my book.

On a Highway, Just Before Dawn

you're not alone
cuz you're here with me
and i'm halfway home
we're halfway to home-free

don't worry about leaving
safe if you don't look down
you get over your fear of heights fast
when you're this far above the ground

and when we woke up this morning
we woke up with a smile
just hold your breath a little longer
just half as many miles

quit your job with the school
and teach me how to live
bring your spirit with you
i want to think like the kids

don't worry about the money
it's no good where we're going
i must confess my ADD
these daily routines won't hold me

while my attention's somewhere else
we've already left, we're halfway there
where we don't believe in lies
where we can live alive

you're not alone
cuz you're here with me
and i'm halfway home
we're halfway to home-free
