Just Looking Back
The snow was blinding
on that Winter day.
We didn't care,
and kept steadily on our way.

Creeping along the road,
the sun gave no rays.
Time didn't matter,
we had so much to say.

We spoke of our lives
from beginning to end.
What we did now,
and what we did then.

Driving on and on,
the whole day sped.
Laughing and happy
round each new bend.

Our first trip together,
two kids in our minds.
On a Winter journey,
to see what we'd find.

So much in love
we were almost blind.
A love like this,
was of a different kind.

Finally out of the car
on that cold snowy night.
We sat in a bar
by a dim fire-light.

So intensely deep,
our love reached new heights.
This time together
was happy and bright.

We drove on to Paradise
and spent the night.
The next day, White Fish Bay,
a most beautiful sight.

Everything we did
seemed just exactly right,
there in that wonderland
of pure clean white.

So often now
I think back to then.
That place we spent the night
was a Heaven send.

When my heart feels sad
and needs to mend,
I just think back to you...
happy we had that time to spend!
