Lonesome Leash - First Day
from Margaret by Jason Webley and Friends
lyrics
On the first day
You sailed this sea,
The waves, they crested
So tall and free.
Cresting like fire
With no smoke,
I heard your voice
Before the silence broke.
Heart beat like thunder
With no light,
Like horses gallop to war
Just beyond our sight.
Pleased to meet you,
And if I might,
I would like to spend my life
In your eye’s light.
And pleased to meet you,
And if I may,
I’d like to be with you
Till my last day,
Till my last day.
