There’s three things in my suitcase
For five days I’ll be out of this place
I should pack more, we both should
I’ve packed a wetsuit, almond butter, and prenatal vitamins
You were talking about bringing wine – that would be good
The water and your eyes are bound to shine like diamonds
I’m gonna float, eat, read on the boat
You’re gonna finally get some rest, I hope
Could the three things be foreshadowing of the year ahead?
I think we’re both tired of looking back
There’s a lot of calendars that have been thrown away
They couldn’t stay up even with the strongest tack
Soon enough, my love, we’re gonna be dead
Because time moves faster than a ship on the sea
Could I float forever in the Caribbean in my wetsuit? Maybe
Almond butter is plenty of calories
Drink a little wine
We’ll both be forever cute
Under the setting sun, let’s dine
Give me your hand, your life, your time
Like when we were in our mid 20s
Let’s not worry about the money
I’ll take my vitamins
And be happy in your arms
Let’s sail away together as 2026 begins
Because, my love, time is thin
