Eighth on Eighth
In the hour before sunrise
With the sound of falling rain
I reach out as you’re sleeping
And draw you to me once again.
When the morning shines upon us
And the sunlight warms your thigh
There is only one reality
And nothing to deny.
The nor’easter blows the salt our way
Across the waves of the raging bay
We’ll later stroll the long breakwall
To the mouth of the old Macleay.
We shall dine at the Chop ‘n Chill today
On a seafood feast with love and wine
I’ll stare into your eyes once more
Anniversary divine.
The nor’easter blows the salt our way
Across the waves of the raging bay
There’s a thunder in the skies above
Nature’s tribute to this day.
In the moments before sunset
With a glory that you’re mine
I’ll stare into your eyes once more
Anniversary divine,
Anniversary divine.
