I need your hand in my hand There's lotsa scattered stars tonight I have no other vision in my dreams Than walking with you in the moonlight And there's only one condition I would like to change I wish you could be here with me On Chesapeake Bay I know a distant voice called you From somewhere far beyond your home Some drifting potion from a future time Returned to take away your soul And in my disturbed acceptance I watched my good luck fly away Now I wish you could be here with me On Chesapeake Bay [Bridge] Walking near the wet kiss of the ocean I keep hearing your eager call Remembering how we'd meet Beside the roaring deep Like you never left at all So I been waiting for the next adventure Cause I need to set my mind to rest But the good times are gone since you passed on Can't find a hope to fill my chest Still missing you has kept me restless I think about you everyday And I wish you could be here with me On Chesapeake Bay Ain't doin nothin at all |

Sweet longing is sung here. I'd love to hear it to music.  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

Eric~ This is just soooooooooooooo beautiful~ 'Walking near the wet kiss of the ocean I keep hearing your eager call Remembering how we'd meet Beside the roaring deep Like you never left at all Can you hear the *sighs* ...~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |

Eric,  I have to tell you, that except for the one you wrote for your writing buddy, this is the best of them all at least to me. Can you send me a link when this one goes on the site? Absolutely beautiful! Like JM, you had me on the title (kinda like Neil's Harvest Moon thing) see? A woman is a sucker for these titles as you notice? This is great for their upcoming "Crab Days Festival" at the end of July. Absolutely beautiful spot to visit. |

loved it, ethome! Especially caught by the power in this line: "Can't find a hope to fill my chest" enjoyed, miscellanea |
