Lyrics

Slipstream

Watching the play of the sun on the water,
reflecting your face in a tangle of light...
Head over heels like a twig in the torrent
riding white horses through scattered stones...
Just dozing here beside the river,
nothing left to do but to daydream in your arms...
Warm summers day like an echo of laughter,
as bees nuzzle clover and silver fish glide...

Something has changed since we lay in the meadow,
the sun on my back and the breeze in your hair...
Love spread its butterfly wings and went dancing,
in poppies and grasses of green and gold...
Now I'm here dozing by the river,
nothing left to do but to daydream in your arms...
I drew you down but then fell as we lingered,
warm and content under bright August skies...

Peering through shadows of willow wands hiding,
signs that I'm hoping I'll find in your eyes...
Wondering if I should say what I'm feeling...
Wondering what you will say if I try...
Just dozing here beside the river,
nothing left to do but to daydream in your arms...
Honey sweet moments of joy and surrender,
then I lost my heart to your cornflower-blue eyes...
