After A Long Drive Home

I stood on the beach at midnight

And the world was quiet

And the moon was bright  

 

I stood alone in the sand and watched the ocean

And my mind was quiet

And my eyes were bright 

 

I knew I'd have to walk back soon

It was late

And they would worry 

 

But just then, I needed quiet

And the world was perfect

And the moon was bright.
