It s a beautiful day I think I will go for a ride
Surfboard in the back, the devil riding shotgun at my side
Tanks full of gas in my black 63 Deville Cadillac
White walls, top down, suicide doors in the back
Following the coastline until the land disappears
But the objects in my review are closer than they appear
Sunset falling fast beyond my site to the west
The sky dances with colors as I remember a time lived best
I look to the clouds as I try make out the shapes
I found a giants castle, a harp, and Heavenly gates
Where am I going still comes to my mind
But this is a journey only my heart will soon find
The moon sings in blue following twilights near
On the edge of serenity the wounds are sheared
I find the end of my rainbow somewhere in there dark
Where the shore meets the sea underneath a peer as I park
Alone in my thoughts I danced with my host
I took my last drink and against the wind I make toast
Hours sink in as I stand before the first morning star
Salt water works best when cleansing my scars
For the awakening sea brings gifts with the tides as they roll
One day Davey Jones locker will give me back the key to my soul
Heaven sends me company of creatures at birth of new light
I take my first step in cold water where burdens take flight
I lay on my plank as my body is swallowed by numb
At peace with the oceans and to His will I succumb
I swim past the break where point of no return is caving in
Patiently I wait for my set to begin
Nothing more effortless than gliding as I ride my first wave
Hand skims across glass where dolphins still play
It's as if walking on water or floating with air
Me one with nature stealing my cares
I melt into dreams as my eyes rest in the sky
For all of my suffering washed away with the tides
