The Drive Home

I tuck your hair behind your ears, close my eyes and fall asleep. I dream of the beach at night, but your not there, just the stars and me. I wake up when you move, get out of bed and get dressed. I kiss your head then I'm gone. The drive home is my favorite part of the night. Everything smells good and I'm wide awake. I turn up all the stupid songs that play on the radio. Get a little sad, when I'm almost home.
