My first entry for a open mic contest! Please excuse the bad lighting, staticy beginning, and bum leg. The show must go on :)

Expensive Wine

All roads lead west
when you're driving to the sunset
you say and I'm smiling
driving down highway 101
sun is sinking into the California coastline
and i remember thinking
you're white knuckling like your holding a gun
and I'm glad I've got my seatbelt on
because i've got fifty-five dollar sangria
you nod in agreement
that it's a good a use of money
and a good use of time
to spend it drinking expensive wine
and I remember it felt so quiet
as we stopped along the oceanside
we were driving south
and we stop and find
where the waterfalls go
to the oceanside
I remember thinking that this was wild
seeing night skies light up
with ghosts of fire
southern California cliff sides high
I would climb down with you
if i get bruised I don't care I want see it, see it
Smile when you get there
Snap a picture smile
I remember flying
Flying high seeing palm trees waving
waving bye
and I felt so lucky
Lucky I got to with you
I'll see you in a while
