Catamaran on a deep blue sea
Comino across the bay
The Holy Father steps ashore
A beautiful sunny day
Here I came with Margaret
Eleven short years ago
A happy day on Gozo
Could have stayed for more
Peaceful holiday in the Med
Walks beside the sea
Swimming in the Blue Lagoon
Happy memory
Little did we know it then
Her life would end so soon
One year on the headache came
And I am on my own
And now today I see again
The lovely place we saw
The deep blue sea the island
Now I see much more
I see how lovely Margaret was
To think she married me
For people too are beautiful
And Margaret was to me
