Maria Daines ~ Anchor
‘Anchor’
Light will fade our summer smiles
Dreams put by a little while
All the joy we couldn’t see
Is by the by for you and me
Ships have sailed to somewhere else
We missed the boat and couldn’t tell
Our story drifts on shifting sand
But here’s my hand, oh take my hand
I’ll hold you close and steady you
Be your anchor in the blue
Chase away your demons now
And lay you down, oh lay you down
To love forever all our days
Be the bond, the hope that waits
To love forever, ever more
To love for peace and leave the war
To never say we have regrets
To never know that love forgets
To be together through the years
And kiss the sadness from our tears
To love forever all our days
Be the bond, the hope that waits
To love forever, ever more
To love for peace and leave the war
To never say we have regrets
To never know that love forgets
To be together through the years
And kiss the sadness from our tears
To never say we have regrets
To never know that love forgets
To be together through the years
And kiss the sadness from our tears
