jeannie’s song

 This song was created in loving memory of Jeannie Rorvik.

These are her words, reimagined with music and melody so that one piece of her beautiful writing may live on in song forever.

 

Sitting together, sipping tea,

It’s quiet now

the stars are out there

somewhere

and you’re right here by me.

Talking of the days

whose swiftness

has tripped us

and now its goodbye.

I know I’ll cry.

And maybe I’ll say

its not too long

and its sure been fun

take care

see ya later, I’ll write.

But here we are now, sitting together

sipping demitasse

and feasting gourmet

the fire is warm

there’s stars in the sky

and you’re right here by me.

I won’t try and catch this moment

to seal it in a jar

But I’ll let it fly

to the breeze within me.

As I watch it in the stars

that float by in the skies

of your eyes.
