 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Basketball at midnight by the docks
The harbor lights, the shot clock winding
I am standing at the free throw line
And no one can see me

Far off in the distance I hear yacht rock
Something from a soundtrack in the 80s
Oh those Simple Minds, simpler times
It makes me wish for lives like these

I am undefeated but there's no one clapping
Except the waves
And it's clear from their reflection
That they're laughing at me
But a sense of you is here with me
Contemplating all things end eventually
As it should be

Soundtrack memory
Nostalgia gets the worst of me
Knowing begrudgingly
There is no permanent eternity
That even this memory
Will spread like ash and wash out to sea

Moths encircle floodlights
Hope is never lost
Ten free throws made at midnight
All pretty in a row
Moth tires of chasing light
Take your ball and wander home

Soundtrack memory
Nostalgia gets the best of me
Searchlights underneath
The body swims voraciously
Taking every breath
Deliberately and graciously
Taking every breath
Deliberately and graciously
