My dearest, darling Margee, sleeping in my arms,
dreams flutter just behind your eyes
And in the eucalyptus branches all along the hill,
birds sing their songs to the night

I love to hold you near me, I love to hear your breath,
blending with the swaying of the trees
I love to wake together in our quiet home,
that looks down the hill to the sea,
white sails on the sea

You're the first light of the morning, my cool sunrise
You're my love across the table, a little sleep in your eyes
You're my strong cup of coffee, you like to laugh right with me
You're my heart's companion, my one true companion,
sweet darling, lover of mine

Dear Margee stay with me, don't wander from my side,
I can't imagine life without you here
The longer we're together, the more I realize,
our love was meant for the years,
we're made for the years

You're the first light of the morning, my cool sunrise
You're my love across the table, a little sleep in your eyes
You're my strong cup of coffee, you like to laugh right with me
You're my heart's companion, my one true companion,
sweet darling, lover of mine
You're the first light of the morning, you like to laugh right with me,
sweet darling, lover of mine
