------------------------------------------------------------
Reach Haven Postcard
Sacred Circle Music/ASCAP/2002
from the latest cd, 'FULL CIRCLE'
------------------------------------------------------------
The first breath of autumn
blows through the trees
And the nights are getting long and growing colder
And the maples are turning and the fields have gone brown
And the waves against the shore
make such a sad sound
Now there's a meal on the table and a fire in the stove.
And a candle burning brightly by the stairway.
And a lamp by the window
that shines out to sea
And I wish so much tonight that you were here with me.

Now the moon is in danger of running aground
As she sweeps the tattered clouds
above the island
And the stars lay like diamonds
on the breast of the sea
And I wonder where you are and if you're thinking of me

Chorus

Now I've grown accustomed
To having you near
And I miss you so madly
When you are not here
When I think how you love me
Oh it brings me to tears
And I wish so much tonight that you were here with me
Well I dropped you a postcare
today in the mail
with a picture of a sailing ship upon it
And I tried to say something
that was clever and clear
But the only thing I wrote was that
'I wish you were here'

Chorus

Words and music by Daniel Fogelberg
