Full Circle on the Water

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Two kids out on the lake, sun on the water Skis cutting through the waves, endless summer laughter We didn't know how rare it was, that kind of easy gold Just figured love like ours would never grow old Then the Air Force called me far away You went your way, I went mine [Chorus] Some things are meant to come full circle Through the years and miles and tears What was lost was only waiting For us to find our way back here And now I'm never letting go Of what my heart has always known [Verse 2] We built our separate lives, did the best we could Raised our kids, walked our roads through the bad and good But there was always something missing, a space I couldn't fill A voice inside that whispered, Christy, still My biggest regret was taking so long To come back where I belonged [Chorus] Some things are meant to come full circle Through the years and miles and tears What was lost was only waiting For us to find our way back here And now I'm never letting go Of what my heart has always known [Bridge] In our fifties we found what the kids couldn't keep A love that's more grounded, more honest, more deep Not by accident, no, this was always the plan Christy, you always held my heart in your hands [Verse 3] Now we dream of open water stretching wide Our boat, the wind, just you here by my side Freedom, peace, and every sunrise we share Is proof that something beautiful was always there This time I'm yours for every wave and shore Christy, I'm not leaving anymore [Chorus] Some things are meant to come full circle Through the years and miles and tears What was lost was only waiting For us to find our way back here And now I'm never letting go Of what my heart has always known [Outro] You own my heart, you always did From that summer lake to wherever we drift
