Diana Krall - Departure Bay Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • The fading scent of summertime
  • Arbutus trees and firs
  • The glistening of rain-soaked moss
  • Going to the dairy queen at dusk
  • Down narrow roads
  • In autumn light
  • The salt air and the sawmills
  • And the bars are full of songs and tears
  • To the passing of the tugboats
  • And people with their big ideas
  • I just get home and then I leave again
  • It's long ago and far away
  • Now we're skimming stones and
  • Exchanging rings
  • And scattering and sailing from departure bay
  • The house was bare of Christmas lights
  • It came down hard that year
  • Outside in our overcoats
  • Drinking down to the bitter end
  • Trying to make things right
  • Like my mother did
  • Last year we were laughing
  • We sang in church so beautifully
  • Now her perfume's on the bathroom counter
  • And I'm sitting in the back pew crying
  • I just get home and then I leave again
  • It's long ago and far away
  • Now we're skimming stones and
  • Exchanging rings
  • And scattering and sailing from departure bay
  • A song plays on the gramophone
  • And thoughts turn back to life
  • We took the long way to get back
  • Like driving over the malahat
  • Now a seaplane drones and time has flown
  • I won't miss all the glamour
  • While my heart is beating and the lilacs bloom
  • But who knew when I started
  • That Id find a love and bring him home
  • Just get me there and one we will stay
  • A long time off and far away
  • Now we're skimming stones and
  • Exchanging rings
  • We're scattering and diving in departure bay
