Great Guns of Love

Daydreaming holding your hands love 
we came to the great walls of Derry 
sitting on the riverbank arising dream 
awakening sweetly pointing out its guns 
felt like singing into your ear 
your an adorable dream 
about this armored city enchanting castles 
trying to give you each and every day 
that very special bit of magic glow


I was drawing pictures for you smiling 
saying how romantic sweet it felt for me, 
saying I thought it looked like a great battleship 
posing showing her strength 
or even pirates on land smiling 
overlooking the river Foyle sings out from the ripples, 
drawing how softly I saw it in my childhood vision 
only now adoring you the heart's queen 

It really sparkled telling you love 
this the first time with anyone, 
sharing this was with you honey 
just out of this world 
most loving of all dreams 
sparkled in such amazing beauty 

I remember reaching over softly to kiss you 
sweetie holding your hand just love your shyness 
thinking back with such gentle warmness 
truly my soul mate your smile shines in the mirrors, 
thanking God for having found you 

I am so happy this day such a memory 
with such a dream never ending blissful thoughts 
feelings of such joy spilling over 
just loving you so beautiful warm flickering the firelight 
so sorry if in any way I ever offend thee ,truly , 
never will it be my intention or will 
as the love for you grows stronger 
in the passing of each new moon 
each day with you beautiful 
never will i forget me not 
beautiful flower you are baby 
the secret vessel who shot me down good .
