Reflections By The Sea
©1985,Chuk Mac Donald
1st verse

I sat down by the ocean
And many suns shone on me
As seagulls echoed o'r the waves
Rhythmic waters beat
Against a boat leaving the harbour
Iceberg white in shades of blue
And with all of nature's splendour
I couldn't help but think of you.
 
2nd verse

A boy threw bread around the wharf
Soon the flying clean-up crew arrived
Careening in with manners lacking
They haggle-grabbed and left to dine
Then I peered into the shallows
And the beauty that I found there
Reminded me of the love we've known
And the times that we have shared.
 

3rd verse

An old man walked his dog along
A beaten path tracing the shore
Whistling the tune of a happy song
While the dog ran on before
The tide that teased the seaweed
With memories of the sea
And the sun an' sand, and the cool seabreeze
Brought you back to me.



 

Chorus

Reflections by the sea
Brought you back to me
In summer memories
Of how it used to be
Reflections by the sea
Reflections by the sea.


Inspired by BarHarbor, Maine
