Baytime Fireside]]

(hummmm) The salt wind settles on the shoreline stones

The fire's burning down to glowing wood

We gathered up the driftwood after dark

Just talking low the way an old friend should (ahhhh)

Here's to the bay

and the gravel underfoot

Here's to the faces gathered in the glow

Not a single thing we need that isn't here

With the water running quiet down below

Pass the tin cup,

let the kettle rest

Danny's laughing at a tale we've heard before

How the dory went adrift in ninety-two

And washed back safe upon the rocky

shore

Here's to the bay

and the gravel underfoot

Here's to the faces gathered in the glow

Not a single thing we need that isn't here

With the water

running quiet down below

(down below)

Years will turn and seasons blow away

Some will scatter, some will stay behind

But on this beach tonight

we found the time

Here's to the bay

and the gravel underfoot

Here's to the faces gathered in the glow

Not a single thing we need that isn't here

With the water

running quiet down below

Quiet down below...

Just good friends by the tide. (hummmm)
