Take me back
to dive bars
and time under the stars
to singing along
at the top of our lungs
midnight drives
and days playing house
When we didn\u2019t know
what came next
or how distant we\u2019d be
When all that mattered
was the moment
Damn all the rest
To when life felt lived
and the stars held promise
No worries, no cares
just the open road
and home away from home
Good friends and good times
So long ago<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
