Driving on 280
Two of us. Eight Times. Zero Hour.

Driving between me and you
Perpetually try reaching you

Softly we whisper
Quietly the night listens

Beamingly you smile
Warmly the headlights guide

Between me and you
Life's vagaries we let go

Your tenderness embraces me
like evening clouds cuddle mountaintops

Suddenly darkness becomes our pillows
Stars our eyes
Thousand years in sight
Looking at
what's between you and I


Bye bye sorrow night
Bye bye crouching knight
With you by my side
I am the king of the thousand lights

Shooting down the human lights
Shining over the nature light
Brief seconds in this lasting night
Challenge all you thousand-year lights

Driving on 280
you and I
