One Sunkissed Day

It was a sunkissed day in Las Vegas,

when I crashed into every bumper car.

The memory is pretty outrageous,

let alone one in a past that’s so far.

Back when I didn’t care about the heat,

long as it was all in the name of fun.

I always played along to my own beat,

soaking up the glow from that big ol’ sun.

Oh what I’d give for a dip in the pool,

with not a single care in this whole world.

Maybe that makes me just another fool,

this intense desire to be unfurled.

You don’t know what you got until it’s gone,

and yet still I yearn for that happy dawn.
