Off And Running

Make this a short goodnight,
my sweet delight,
I have miles and miles to go.
I have dreams to sell
to drunken angels
that fly on paper wings.

The scent of October wind
and sweetened gin,
have taken home on me.
Dragging me back to dim lit bars,
well placed cars, and places I shouldn't be.

This is only good night its not good bye,
have I given you any reason to doubt,
that I'll be back before the stars
and the street lights all go out.
