Lagoon

A Shallow body of water Separated from the ocean People comes to Venice Hoping to find love fill emotions He drives a gondola With lovers from every where So many Private conversations He can't help but overhear There was a couple Got married this afternoon They were having ice cream Under a full new moon But today he's with another girl Sailing down the lagoon Hugging and kissing will go to his wife very soon There are so many rides Fill with love and adultery On the lagoon of Venice Only a gondolier can see So many comes here Looking for love that's true Hoping to find happiness So their life's can become new There was a girl from Trinidad Who was alone on the lagoon? She meet a guy from New York They found love that afternoon A couple came from England Looking for what had disappear They lost their love in London And are hoping to find it here It's just a lagoon But a place of love And people comes hoping to Find what they been dreaming of Some will find love to day Some might find it tomorrow Some love you will get to keep And some you can just borrow So many comes to this lagoon Waiting for love to starts Not knowing they already have it If they look in their hearts Love can happen anywhere On the land, skies and sea But when true love comes The Lagoon is where some hope to be Across the universe Under the sun or the moon People are falling in love On a beautiful lagoon
