An August Baptism
Another for your collection
Hey baby, I guess here we go again
Down this reminiscing refrain
You know my mind goes back
To a euphoric Dog day Monday
Where the clouds where cotton candy fluffy
Thinking of that day really touches me
I remember you took off
So we can spend the day together
After a rough week, it seems we would sever
Going to Bob Evans for breakfast
Made things feel a lil better
Also the magnificent upper 80 degree weather
Lord this day I will really treasure
It almost seemed like the beginning of something
Well it also was the ending
Just a little escape from our tense times
Just a bit of mending
My family was out of town that week
So their pool is free
Come on wouldn't it be fun to take a refreshing dip with me?
Let's jump in and wash all the stress away
Let's be children, baby lets laugh and play
Once we hopped in, boy I could stay all day
Until we're wrinkled like prunes
Immersed in this pool we're so consumed
Talking, hugging
Loving and
Kissing
Bonding is what we've been missing
Giving each other our in depth interviews
Getting to know each again
Those specifics
You float atop of me
While it seems like we're up in the sky
Breathing in the atmosphere
Bathing in our personal lagoon
Sky scraping the stratosphere
I guess that's the effect
When your house is on a hill
Submerging playing our penny game
This day has been so surreal
Just for a couple hours say we forget our troubles
Enjoy nature and her elements
Anything beyond
You and this crystal clear pool
Is so irrelevant
I want to stay in here hugging you
With no cares
Straight into the twilight
When the sun disappears
It was something special about
Our private swim
This day was beautiful and flawless
God baptized us that day
Unified
On a Monday in August.
Dedicated to Tiffany
Don't cry baby, this was such a day of joy that I will never forget.Thank you for this memory. Love you.
