Sitting on a porch swingnLooking out across New Haven BaynAn eastern seaboard sunsetnDecorates a warm September daynWe must look so old-fashionednI never thought that I’d end up this waynHappy to surrendernMarry you again and againnLinger in the flownIn this afterglownnDusty shoebox photosnDocument my history with younWhen the shutter opens upnThe lens takes in the world around you toonMy heart is like a cameranIn love with all the world through loving you nThe feeling overwhelms menWaiting for our favorite songnOn the radionIn this afterglownnNow the night has fallennThe fireflies in dazzling disarraynI begin to lose myselfnIn the glow of nature’s fireworks displaynAll at once it hits menMarriage is the afterglow of two committed livesnA growing promise that surrounds us in its lightnSometimes this ever afternIs bigger than my heart can containnLet it overflownIn this afterglow
