Mind Was On Vacation
I have been working late
up until 11 six days a week
just dreaming of a better life
in between these tiny breaks
I have been sweating and my fingers aching
from all this lifting
and knowing as the deadlines nears
so up the pressure....
right now I just wish
my mind was on vacation
I want to see you with me
with us under an umbrella right on the beach
with no problems, no worries, no concern
palm trees swaying...beer in my hand as I am laying
the tan on my skin
and the love I feel for you on display
it would feels so good
that sand in between my toes
with absolutely no where to go
if only, if only
my mind was on vacation
but it can't be at least not now
too much work to do
and not enough clones of me
so I continue the grind
wipe the brow over my eyes
and once again dream of just
quitting time.....
