lyrics

late night
next flight
something calls me to the light
and if i
don't return
know that i am finally home

i am learning all the landmarks
mapping out the territory
soaking up the culture
learning all her history
certain parts are dangerous
but i wanna know those, too
it's easier for a man who's paid his dues

deadlines, responsibilities
i intend to tend to all of these

but miami is on the horizon, shimmering
and i know i'll get there if i take my time
and that modest, decent life
that should have been hers the whole time
i think it's time she tried

midnight
next life
things we couldn't quite get right
pull the next book
won't regret the chance we took

well i intend to take my time
but i won't let the time take me
i'm getting old and i need something to believe
could be my city or your mountains
could be my leather or your lace
it could be north or south
or anywhere between

hangups, insecurities
i intend to put an end to all of these

because miami is on the horizon, shimmering
and i know i'm getting closer all the time
and that modest, decent life
that should be hers and could be mine
well maybe it's time we tried...
