Canoe Trip,The
Up before dawn, sipping coffee,
We have to arrive by 6 am. to ride the bus,
~
Trying not to yawn, A two day canoe trip,
Sometimes I think were crazy, the two of us,
~
We made this trip for us, to reclaim our love,
"We been apart just too long,"
~
Maybe were getting another chance, from up above,
To fix our love and what went wrong,
~
Checking our list, as I pull at my lip,
Looking at the stuff on the lawn,
~
Picking up my coffee and having another sip,
Making sure, are we forgetting anything?
~
Lifting and carrying the old red dented canoe,
For yet another trip, tying it on the car,
~
A canoe trip for two, just like we used to do,
Have you missed me, as I have missed you?
~
Crystal clear waters, and skies of blue,
25 miles down stream, we will travel so far,
~
And Stopping along the way, pitching a tent,
Camping out, Time for us and time to play,
~
So Smile, and keep smiling for me,
Will take time to enjoy the night and day,
~
We'll hug and kiss, the two of us,
Under sun and stars and moon of the night,
~
I'll look into your eyes and feel your love,
And know our love is right,
~
You can sleep while I drive, don't fuss,
Were going on a holiday,
~
I'll get us to the early bus,
Kiss me, hold me, what you say?
~
This is our way to re-lite our fire,
It's been way, way to long,
~
I already feel intense desire,
"Come on, lover, sing me your song",
~
And after this trip,
I hope you see,
~
Its time for you and me,
I love you, and you love me.
