there was a gentle wave of sadness

that swept across the land

it waited till the dry years had passed

and then hit me like a flood

and knocked me off my feet

but you, were there, to catch me


i was drownin' neck deep in pity

when i reached out for your hand

and you accepted with such generosity

and i asked you so kindly

to pull me from this prison

that had locked me up without meaning (oh yes it did)


and the trees they swayed

from side to side

and our love was satisfied

and if you ask me girl

you'd get a straight honest answer

that we could last forever


yeah we could! we could last forever!

love's not that far away...
