lyrics

Ginger (Lyrics: Rob Lutes/Monique Riedel)

Let’s open our hearts and write our fable
Eat this feast that’s on our table
Fill our heads with loving words in rhyme

Baby life’s so short let’s never worry
We’ve got time if we don’t hurry
Let’s not rush right to the finish line

Oh we all take some tumbles it’s not fun
Sometimes we need to lean on someone
When we’re gonna flip and fly and fall right through the air
I’ll be there when it gets dark
Singing to your heart

Darling you’re a pearl
My most precious find
You bring wonder to my world
With your perfect mind

Let’s take a walk, let nothing guide us
Let the wild unfurl inside us
Pluck each perfect moment off the vine

Just like the birds in silent motion
Let the wind blow every notion
Out to sea with these romantic lines

Darling you’re a pearl
Oh the deepest rarest kind
And this weird and weary world
Is sometimes blind

Baby let’s let love reign down its thunder
Across the world of seven wonders
One for every way I love you dear

Head and heart and soul and smile
Walking talking down the aisle
Lips to whisper these words in your ear

Darling you’re a pearl
I can’t quite believe you’re mine
You bring wisdom to my world
With your perfect mind

Darling you’re a pearl
The deepest rarest kind
You bring wonder to my world
With your perfect mind

Sussex is the brainchild of Michael Emenau and Rob Lutes. The two renowned musicians were childhood friends and high school bandmates in New Brunswick.
Reunited in 2012, the pair began to write together for the first time in 20 years. They released their debut album Parade Day in 2016. The Ocean Wide is their second album.
