Lyrics

Time is of the essence
So it's told in a tale
A romance made of magic
For a boy and a girl
All the things beautiful
Reside in the warmth of a smile, a smile

Walks on the pier
In the summertime breeze
Wind in our hair
As we watch autumn leaves
Sit by the fire as winter
Storms by in a flash, a flash

There'll be roses
That wilt in the fall
When you're lonesome
I'll be there when you call
There are mountains to climb
With you by my side
Let me be your guide, tonight

Nothing like the touch
Of your hand when I'm scared
A kiss on my cheek
From your lips when I'm sad
If fishes were wishes
I'd bathe in the sea of your love, your love

Let's hold on forever
Till death do us part
Bottle our soul
Preserve them deep in our heart
Eternity's just an old friend
Here's a toast to our life, our life

There'll be heartaches
To heal if you fall
When you're lonesome
I'll be there when you call
There are mountains to climb
With you by my side
Let me be your guide

There'll be roses
That wilt in the fall
When you're lonesome
I'll be there when you call
There are mountains to climb
With you by my side
Let me be your guide, tonight

Here's a sweet and original love song chock-full of warm word pictures that warm the heart and engage the listener instantly, drawing us into the story. Favorite line: If wishes were fishes I'd bathe in the sea of your love." I hope that is original, cuz I loved it. Walks on the pier...just a lot to look at and feel in this song. Could be sung at a wedding "till death do us part". Another favorite word picture - the roses that wilt in the fall. Guitar intro has power and energy; vocals crystal clear with some artistic flairs that are fun to listen. Beautiful harmonies. Great job!

Lovely love song, the voice is beautiful and fits the lyrics perfectly, and the music fits the words. A wonderful combination of perfection. Bravo, I'm going to hear it again.

scary good entrance, nice vocals, lyrics simple but subtly cool.
"is fishes were wishes i'd bathe in the sea", nice example of well written folk tune. enjoyed it...
