Tender Visions

Ancient trees loom overhead
Soft pine needles for our bed
Remembering the words we said
Our deep desires finally fed

Memories in the morning dew
Tender visions, dear, of you

Like a shy untamed young dove
Tenuously you shared your love
Opening yourself to give
As angels watched from up above

Memories in the morning dew
Tender visions, dear, of you

Unbridled passion did we share
No longer bound by worldy care
Tender touches in the cool sweet air
Carving hope between us there

Memories in the morning dew
Tender visions, dear, of you

Now the years are traveling on
And still we sing love’s gentle song
Tatooed upon us, right or wrong
The image of where we belong

Memories in the morning dew
Tender visions, dear, of you

Those ancient trees are gone from view
But always I’ll recall where two
Carved memories in the morning dew
Tender visions, dear, of you
