So my friends who inspired this blog are expecting. To celebrate the occasion, I finished The Deck Song, an Adam and Peggy collaboration*. For years the song ended at "The days grew short".
The Deck Song**
Do you remember
The days we spent
Laughing in the sun
We were happy
We were gorgeous
And the days they
Seemed to last so very long
But autumn came
The days grew short
A house got sold and
Our friends moved out
The sun came back
but it wasn't okay
Till they brought their girl
Over for the day
And we will remember
The day we spent
Laughing in the sun
Because she's so happy
She's so gorgeous
And her days they have
Really just begun
Then more happy news
A new heart beats
Soon a baby boy* will
Grace this street
And we will remember
The days we spent
Laughing in the sun
Because they are happy
They are gorgeous
And these days are going to
Last so very long
The days may grow short
The winds may grow cold
But your family and friends
Will be your home
And you will remember
The days we spent
Laughing in the sun
We are happy
We are gorgeous
And these days they
Seemed to last so very long
*Adam and I are not songwriters.
** I am never singing this song. Ever. See *.
*** I'm going with an early prediction. I'm not entirely sure babies have a gender at this point.
