Spindrift

Verse

Beneath the endless sky where the salt winds drift,

Five generations’ laughter weaves with every rift.

Granite and pine, heartbeat of this land,

Spindrift stands steady, shaped by loving hands.

Verse

Named for sea spray sweeping wild in the gale,

Spindrift whispers origins in each salty veil.

Down by the shoreline, Split Rock rises grand,

A granite heart divided, steadfast on the sand.

Chorus

Home is the tide rising, the call of the loons,

Stories in the floorboards, summers and Junes.

Far and wide we may wander, and always we return,

To gather ’round Spindrift, where family fires burn.

Verse

It began with Roy and Tawn, with hope and a dream,

They found this precious haven by the bay’s silver gleam.

Their daughters Peg and Janet, bound to Wilf and Jim,

Built lives and wandered far, but the bay kept them within.

Verse

Old pine steps worn smooth, echoes in the hall,

Photographs with sunlight dancing on the wall.

Children’s laughter mixing with years that have flown,

Spindrift’s our harbor, forever homegrown.

Chorus

Home is the tide rising, the call of the loons,

Stories in the floorboards, summers and Junes.

Far and wide we may wander, and always we return,

To gather ’round Spindrift, where family fires burn.

Verse

Nine cousins gather ’round when summer’s in bloom,

Too many Pauls crowd every room.

Sleeping in the bunkhouse beneath the starry sky,

At Spindrift we’re family, the greatest gift on high.

Bridge

In Nova Scotia’s arms, tradition finds its song,

Every second Thanksgiving, our roots grow strong,

Every second Thanksgiving, where our hearts belong.

Chorus

Home is the tide rising, the call of the loons,

Stories in the floorboards, summers and Junes.

Far and wide we may wander, and always we return,

To gather ’round Spindrift, where family fires burn.
