Kitsilano

At twenty-four They met on the Kitsilano shore With every turn of his hand she moves And the river shines Then warning came Bend your knees, boy, and go astray With a whisper in his ear she said What pulls on you will take me, too Steady in the stormy A marker in the making The shore forgives the tide Holding in the deep is Your name between his teeth The shore forgives the tide Wasn't it true That staying near the home that you knew Was small and weak But the wiser do, it seems You always had a way of finding magic in the moment You always had a way of finding magic in the moment Steady in the stormy A marker in the making The shore forgives the tide Holding in the deep is Your name between his teeth No day so quickly passes I know the thought of you rings true And the shore forgives the tide
