Escape On a Bike:

The tune of the pipes 
Calling your name 
As the bike warms up 
And awaits your arrival 

Weaving and swaying 
Through the concrete jungle 
Dodging and ducking 
Traffic lights and cars 
Pollution drives us 
Out of the city 

Cleanse our faces with the salt 
From the sea
As we rumble past 
The roaring ocean 

You and I 
Melting together  
Racing along the 
Foothills of the mountain 
Washing out our lungs 
With farm fresh air 

The tune of the exhausted pipes 
The angelic manurers of the bike 
Are romancing the mountain 
As the bike becomes alive 
And protect us like a lover 

The overspray of the waterfall is
Washing the city out of or hair 
Replacing the oxygen in the 
Paws of our skin 
Exciting our sensors 
Wetting our appetite 

Launching out of the forest 
Racing along the plain  
Travelling faster than light 
Floating into space 

The Engine running on galaxy gas 
The tyres run on star dust 
Our journey never ends 
And quit frankly my dear 

With you by my side 
And a highly polished bike 
I never want this journey to end
