I need your hand in my hand Beneath the stars tonight Wishing you were with me In the new moonlight But I'm left in this condition Cause fate will have it's way And you had to leave me Alone on Plymouth Bay A distant voice has called you Somewhere beyond our home Some ancient trick of fortune Returned to take your soul And in my scarred acceptance With a heart so full of pain Tonight I really need you Right here on Plymouth Bay [Bridge] Near the wet kiss of the ocean I still hear your call Remembering how we'd roam Beside the boilin foam Like you never left at all Been hopin for second chance Just to set my mind to rest But good times are a treasure Still locked up in my chest So I find my spirit restless Thinking bout you everyday Wishing you were with me Tonight on Plymouth Bay IF YOU HAVE TO JUDGE SOMEONE DO IT ON THE SIDE OF MERCY AND LET TIME SEASON THE RESULTS. |

Eric I especially like the bridge. As in all of yours, the music is in the words. ![]() |

Eric, you are a True troubadour! "Near the wet kiss of the ocean I still hear your call Remembering how we'd roam Beside the boilin foam" ~ I can see it, hear it, feel it ~ and remember... Thank you for bringing back some magical moments of my own. ![]() Linda |

I need your hand in my hand Beneath the stars tonight Wishing you were with me In the new moonlight But I'm left in this condition Cause fate will have it's way How very beautiful... and universal... the locations may be different, but many know the yearn. *S* |

This poem sings to me so perfectly that I can almost hear the waves crashing against the rocks....*sigh* how I miss the magic of the ocean and the soothing sounds it filled my heart with....BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!! I love it...*big hugs* |

I found myself humming the likes of "Galway Bay" whilst reading this, and loved it with a Celtic, folksy kind of melody. Really a pretty song Eric. |

Ethome, for some reason tonight I really heard the salt of this song... it is not a fast song, more of a ballad in my ear, and I can hear a few of the lines strung out on heart notes... it's good... when are you going to come to our area and perform, anyway? We could use some new blood, and some great music! |
