Shearwater Hymn

She was standing there

Looking out to sea

I see you as a bird, babe

Closely out of reach

Holding both my hands

Leaning into me

She whispered sweet

I don't remember what she said, but

I remember my arms around her

I remember my arms around her

I remember the way I felt beside her

I remember my arms around her

She was lying there

Beautiful and free

I see you as a bird, babe

Perched up next to me

I would play guitar

She would sing the melody

She sang so sweet

I don't remember how it went, but

I remember my arms around her

I remember my arms around her

I remember the way I felt beside her

I remember my arms around her
