Island Nights

I've been fishin' with friends
on a beach with no end,
standing in surf lit by the moon.

My only wish
is to catch a big fish.
I don't care if it don't happen soon.

Because with the wind and the waves,
all the money we saved,
to be here with the regular crew,

Just to sit and poke fun,
in the moonlight or sun,
the way that we always do,

With every dime that we've spent,
everywhere that we went,
made every bit of this trip worth its while.

As I lounge on the beach,
a cold beer within reach,
The worst any can do is to smile.
