lyrics

Megan’s Bay
words and music by John Lester

There’s a rainbow
Shining over Megan’s Bay
A little gift from heaven
A present on this wedding day
To show us that this moment
Will always be much more than a memory
The blessing of a union
Me to you
You to me

Our love it flows like the prophets sea
It lets us both stand tall like the oak and the cypress tree
And it rains in the sunset
And it moves like the sand
As it’s waves wash upon it
Like the soft surf falling on this silver strand

There’s a rainbow
Shining over Megan’s Bay
A little gift from heaven
A present on this wedding day
To show us that this moment
Will always be much more than a memory
The blessing of a union
Me to you
You to me

You warm my soul like this tropic breeze
Of my heart you have taken your hold
But at the same time you set me free
And how you shine in this moment
Like I’ve not seen before
I know our love it has no limits
‘Cause every single day I love you more and more

And there’s a rainbow
Shining over Megan’s Bay
A little gift from heaven
A present on this wedding day
To show us that this moment
Will always be much more than a memory
The blessing of a union
Me to you
You to me

Though we’re alone here together
And we’re far from the ones we love
All their hopes and prayers have come to us
And they’ve been manifested in the sky above

'Cause there's a rainbow
Shining over Megan’s Bay
A little gift from heaven
A present on this wedding day
To show us that this moment
Will always be much more than a memory
The blessing of a union
Me to you
You to me

Me and you
You and me
Look baby there’s a rainbow
There’s a rainbow
Shining over Megan’s Bay
