steamer

i remember that steamer

the time you set sail

the crowd was steamin'

streamin' and leanin' on the rail

then the big whistle blew

and i lost my place

next thing i knew

i could not find your face

i can see myself dramin'

the time you came home

your face was beamin'

seemin'

to stand out alone

the dinner bell chimed

and i found my seat

when your eyes met mine

your smile was so sweet

i remember that river

first time we made love

oh i still kinda shiver a little

at what i'm thinkin' of

how your dress it just floated

all down around your knees

and i held my breath my god

my girl

but most of all it's that steamer

the time you set sail

and the crowds always steamin'

streamin' and

leanin' on the rail

then the big whistle blows

and i always lose my place

next thing i know

i cannot find your face
