For Mother & Dad ( To a gypsy violin and steel guitar)
***
Silver in her hair
Trembling hands in prayer
She sat beside the old man
He wiped away her tear
Fifty years of love lay
Dying here today
He held her to his heart
And I heard her say
I can see forever
When I'm in your arms
You and me together
Swaying to the music
'Neath the magic palms
An island out of time
One moment more
Let it be mine
One twinkling of an eye
You'll be gone
Don't say goodbye
Just close your eyes, my darling
Hear our music sway
Float upon our love song
As you drift away
Remember all we've been
Who we are
We've lived our dream
On our wedding day
Beneath the stars
I heard you say...
I can see forever
When you're in my arms
You and me together
Swaying to the music
'Neath the magic palms
Palm trees by the sea
A lovers' moon
You and me
Our love will never die
You must go
Though I may cry
We'll close our eyes, my darling
Hear our sweet refrain
I'll hold you in my heart
Til we dance again
I can see forever
When I'm in your arms
You and me together
Swaying to the music
'Neath the magic palms
Just close your eyes, my darling
Hear our music sway
Just float upon our love song
As you drift away
