Come round the Cape to the land where sunshine is free,
And gaze at the beauty where the cliffs meet the sky and the rocks reach the sea.
Where the waters run clear and the grasses are golden in the sun,
And all your tomorrow's must wait 'til this day is done.

Come round the Cape to my land where life is a song,
And sing while the gulls fill the air with their joy all day long,
Where the cliffs cascade to the sea, and even the wind sings in tune,
And all your tomorrow's must wait 'til this day is done.

Come round the Cape to my land where legends remain,
Where history of old, stirs the heart and remnants are found again,
Where the past is gone and the future's still ours to be won,
And all your tomorrow's must wait 'til this day is done.

And all our tomorrow's must wait 'til this day is done...


AN ADAPTION OF AN OLD TRADITIONAL IRISH SONG TO AUSTRALIA'S BYRON BAY....WRITTEN FOR SVEN..


 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

Isis. . .

This is beautiful... I know that someday, I'll "Come round the cape" and that the things that I find there will make me never want to go back. . .

And my tomorrows will never come again. . .

What can I say....yet another one.
