Road (for Thomas)

On your motorbike, hair in the wind
Lost on some path, at it again
Caffeine lips, brown flakey tan
A buddy, a pal, my best of friends
How's it been

Tell me what you now know
That you learned out there on the road
Share with me your dreams
Are you happy inside as it seems

Jumping cliffs and haggling for goods
Bare feet on the path, some far off woods
Always an airplane away
A jaunt across the earth
Found it's worth

Tell me what you now know
That you learned out there on the road
Share with me your dreams
Are you happy inside as it seems

One, two, three, four

Skipping rocks down by the lake
Taking paths, we should never take
Do you remember running from the cops, I do
Remember the trouble we'd escape
And getting caught sneaking out late
The day your mother changed the locks, because I do
Every late-night talk under the moon
Every time I said 'My last days are so soon'
You brought me back
I love you for that
To all the memories made
And the ability to make more
