No words were said on the drive back to your place
The sun went down as it always does after a long beach day
This was your usual
I had found it strange
I’m unaccustomed to not having stress or anxiety
The thought of doing nothing all day’s so foreign to me
I’ve never really known
How to just be
I didn’t get it before
But now I do
I didn’t get it before
But now I do
The Caribbean on my left as I followed the road’s curves
The daylight disappeared, you were smiling,
We didn’t say a word
We just were
I didn’t get it before
But now I do
I didn’t get it before
But now I do

I have to get away
Spending too much time in one place
Even one this nice
Can get old
Such a perfect view
But it can grow tiresome, too
All I want in life
Is to go home
I’ve had enough pates
Frozen drinks in cramped alleyways
The jewelry stores don’t have
My interest
Strange to get the blues
Strange to be in a Blonde On Blonde mood
Or like Republica
(More or less)
Those lines in ‘Sloop John B’
Now resonates so much with me
They have never felt so true
I need to get away
Help me to escape
A cruise ship or seaplane
They would do
I’d love to sleep today
Then find myself awake
Back in Californ-I-A
That’d do, too

Beneath mangroves
Barely-there roads
Hoping the car makes it through
What greets us, then
When the road ends
Erases doubt PDQ
Some rum and Coke
The roosters crow
With no regard for the time
A bit of weed
Out by the cay
We’ll save the rest for the night
Why would we leave?
The seasons blur
Herons and terns
Go by in their calm remove
Back through mangroves
And still-there roads
Hoping the car makes it through
Why would we leave?

Three saints, four weeks
The work complete
What’s gained? What’s gleaned?
What did it mean?
Some friendships made
Soon far away
Just memories
They’ll fade slowly
That Boot Straps feel
That birthday meal
With friends I’ll miss
A perfect gift
Shoys Beach, Trunk Bay,
Red Hook, they’ll fade
What did it mean?
Everything
