Pebbles Across The Lake
Skimming pebbles on the lake
see how far they go,
I got nearest to the Island
so far was my throw.
Little kisses that I gave you
first time we both met,
Like my pebbles skimming
on your lips so wet.
Always I'll love skimming pebbles
my love skips to you,
Your heart is my island darling
why my aim's so true.
Never do I miss your lips
when my own are aimed,
As my pebbles skim to you
kisses they are claimed.
