The Lyrics

Imagining a widow of a sailor returning to the site of the sinking to drop a wreath, and remember.
Every year when that day comes around
I think about the night when the Edmund Fitz went down
And I wonder if you're looking down, somehow knowing
From a better place above, where the stars are glowing
I revisit the spot, like always
Just like always, baby

Once each day I still recall
I look at your face in the frame on the wall
You were smiling at the future with your eyes shining
I had you, you had me, and we had it all
For a thousand years, yes, for always

Maybe someday, they say that I'll forget
I'll fall in love with someone else, go on without regret
Funny isn't it? It hasn't happened yet
Some loves really last as long as
The sun sets on the Great Lakes, every night

The boat slows down, I scan the skies, so peaceful now
I imagine you are watching, and, of course, you are
And I long for you to touch me and to heal the scar
Then I toss you a bouquet, just like always
Just like always, just like always, baby, just like always
