Lyrics
In my dreams I often get a vision that’s divine
Of a very still lagoon
With you in white and me in blue
Alone in quite a safe canoe
Failing this what could be better than the Serpentine
On an afternoon in love in June?
Refrain
In a boat on a lake with my darling
In the heat of a sweet summer day
There’s the sound of the breeze
In the green willow trees
And the noise of the town fades away
Letting time flutter by like a starling
As we gaze into the infinite blue above
Hand in hand, heart to heart
Just a moment apart
In a boat on a lake with my love
