The intimate friendship and enthusiasm for each other is what I hope to convey in “The Hammock”.

We should all be so lucky to have someone in our lives that makes us live our best life.

THE HAMMOCK

Me and you, fireballs,
we burned a bridge or two,
Buccaneers we got the same tattoo,
Now to the end, it’s me and you

From the start, you pushed me
to lean in with my heart,
Pushed me home in a chrome shopping cart,
Now to the end, right off the chart.

It’s a state of mind
To unwind, laugh till we tear.
All we left behind
Just to find a hammock here.

New careers, we used to
hold those wolves by their ears,
But hold our calls when the sun appears.
Now to the end, true profiteers.

Full upgrade, we traded
the boardroom vain crusade,
All for this ocean view in the shade,
Now to the end, best plan we made.

It’s a state of mind
To unwind, laugh till we tear.
All we left behind
Just to find a hammock here.

From the brink, I swear that
you are my missing link,
In the sun, joking and turning pink,
Now to the end, A toast and wink.

Why complain? We’re not yet
circling down round the drain,
No rues nor regrets to entertain,
Now to the end, A bit insane.

It’s a state of mind
To unwind, laugh till we tear.
All we left behind
Just to find a hammock here.
