On Your Way
(For D. & C.L.)
Words and Music by Mark Edwards
© February 1980
Just a happy song to send you . . . on your way
Just some words of hope to keep you . . . day by day
Can't you see the stars above? Can't you see the morning dove?
Singing for the one you love, today.
Seemed not long ago I looked and . . . there you are
Remember nights together wishing . . . on a star
Valentines and photographs, Rollercoasters, Wine Caraffes
Coffeehouses, lots of laughs, so far.
Wind may try to blow away
the embers of your fire
Rain can fall on any day
no matter where you are
. . . But you,
Got the things you need to keep you . . .safe and warm
All the things you need to help you through the storm
Just remember all the days, and all the many different ways
That love has brought you back to stay, once more.
When the days grow older
and the fire is burning low,
When the days are cloudy
and you just don't seem to know.
. . . That you,
Got a love to get you through the hardest of times
Just a little work and you'll find, the words . . . they'll rhyme
Just another "I Love You", To put in everything you do
And all your wishes, they'll come true, in time.
Just a happy song to send you on your way
Just some words of hope on this your wedding day
Can't you see the stars above? Can't you hear the morning dove?
Singing for the one you love, today.
