The story of a man who leaves his life behind to pursue his passion for music and to find the love of his life. He gets in his car and heads south with complete faith that he'll find what he's looking for. And he does.
I'm sometimes subtle in my writing and like to maybe spark the listeners imagination by not filling in all the blanks, so I'd like to know if the story come thru clearly. Also...does the song keep you engaged, or is it too long? What about structure?

Just before dawn on a Saturday morning
There's dew on my windshield
The smell of spring is thick in the air
Time to make this old dream real
They say red in the morning sailor take warning
I really just don't care
You know I ain't lookin' back as I load up my six string
Heading south on a song and a prayer
And I'm on my way yeayea
Yes I'm on my way yeayea
I'm on my way to find myself
Somewhere out on this long road
On my way to find her too
The other half of my whole soul
At a beachside bar I'm playin guitar
And singing my favorite song
The sun's sinkin low and a heavenly sea breeze
Is dancing with those lazy palms
A beautiful shadow stretches from the horizon
And she's dancing into my life
Toward me she moves, the sun setting behind her
Red at night it's a sailor's delight
And I'm on my way yeayea
Yes I'm on my way yeayea
On my way to find myself
Somewhere out on this long road
I just might have found her too
The other half of my whole soul
Why it took me so long I guess I'll never know
We all have our doubts and fears
But I followed my music till I found my love
Now she's whispering in my ear
Let's be on our way yeayea
And we're on our way yeayea
On my way I found myself
My music it carried me home
On my way I found her too
The other half of my whole soul
Now we're on our way yeayea
Yes we're on our way yeayea
Gladly on our way yeayea
Finally on our way yeayea
