Lyrics
Fascination
I open the gate
And I walk down the driveway
The garden has seen better days
A bit like myself
It shows no morning glory
The sun is in hiding
The sky’s a wistful grey
It’s a melancholy day
The abundance of colour
Way back in its heyday
Followed you up
To that place in the sky
There’s hardly a trace now
Of you having been here
The hard side of life
Is that final goodbye
I open the door
The house is still warm
Though it’s empty and bare
Except for a box
That’s brimming with love
Waiting patiently there
The precious photographs
And loving letters
Sent to you
When times were better
Long ago, before that fateful day
O Perfect Love
All human thought
Transcending
A love that knows no ending
I’m fascinated by your love
Fascination, Fascination
I’m fascinated by you
O Perfect Love
All human thought
Transcending
A love that knows no ending
I’m fascinated by your love
I’m captivated by your love
Look up at the sky
My eyes can see you dancing
Look up at the sky
I know you’re still romancing
Look up at the sky
The sun is shining with your love
Fascination, Fascination
O Perfect Love

When my dad died we found a box in the attic containing old photos
and love letters from my mum. She had written him a little poem
called 'Fascination', and their wedding hymn sheet 'O Perfect Love' Was there too.
This song was inspired by the contents of the box.. XX
