Took my son and his tear stained face out of Sunday School
As chapel hymns began to fade away
Left his mother with the other as we drove across our town
Going to the place where the seagulls and the cranes play

On a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
This is one day of our lives
And on a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
Don’t you know that I love you
All of my life

And the old man in the side street he made you smile
Waved at us both so we both waved back
Down on through Bute Street to the mud of the low tide
They tear the old things down my son, but some things stay the same

On a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
This is one day of our lives
And on a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
Don’t you know that I love you
All of my life

We saw Captain Scott on the Terra Nova
Setting sail for open sea
And maybe one day when you’re older
You’ll come down this way and think of me

It’ll be a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
Just one day of your life
And on that Sunday over Cardiff Bay
Know that I loved you..

On a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
This is one day of our lives
And on a Sunday over Cardiff Bay
Know that I love you
I hope that’s alright…
All of my life
