Turquoise Blue
Mike Heron
On the white sand a footprint
On her back the golden sun
Is playing tunes on this lazy afternoon
It's high summer
The sun's playing tunes
They're so beautiful to see
Only love can sing the harmony
Oh my lover
She knows how to give a gift
She knows how to make a cool breeze sigh
Brings the warmth of summer to my bed at night
And she brings the colour of the sky too
Turquoise Blue
In the distance the birds sing
In the distance the sweet echoing
Of the flute she's playing
On the hazy air
Over there
Oh shimmering day don't take me away
I'd rather be here than anywhere
