Perfect Afternoon – Andy Gordon (February 2007)

There are two paths you can go, one is easy one is slow.
No one knows but you which leads to a perfect afternoon.
Take the top off that there wine pour it slow we've got some time.
The children won't be home for hours this time is yours and mine.

Let's work in the garden now it invigorates you somehow.
To get some dirt beneath your fingers, the look on your face gives me shivers.
I'm not sure if I love you more but I'm not keeping score.
I just know I'll soak up every moment of this perfect afternoon

The wind blows through the lawn takes our thoughts away from harm
you keep working there that's fine, I'll bring the clothes in off the line
and later on I'll cook some dinner, I want to be with you forever.
Friends of ours I'm sure they think we're loons like characters in some cartoon.
Oh let's settle back and drink some more of this perfect afternoon

Maybe we're dreaming. I won't complain.
If we imagine that baby we're leaving it behind.

There are two paths you can go, one is easy one is slow.
I'll just sit beside you on this perfect afternoon.
The look on your face gives me shivers, I want to be with you forever.
You fill up my loving soul let's stick together till we're old
and soak up every moment of this perfect afternoon.

Ooh, this perfect afternoon.
Ooh, perfect afternoon.
