On The Surface |
| It was cold on the docks that night |
| As a frozen white light |
| Shone across my shoes |
| As I stood in the darkest blue |
| There came a light towards me |
| On the water that lay before me |
| And I could not wait to touch |
| The frozen hands that had felt so much |
| Oooooooo |
| I heard a song inside of me |
| It resonated off the sea |
| And all the chorus voices sang it back to me |
| If life is an ocean |
| Then I’m only on the surface |
| This is where they come in |
| Where some lives end and some begin |
| And this is where I like to stand |
| And watch the swirling ways of man |
| To stir humanity with visions of dignity |
| To see what will conspire |
| If I throw myself into its fire |
| Oooooooo |
| I heard a song inside of me |
| It resonated off the sea |
| And all the chorus voices sang it back to me |
| If life is an ocean |
| Then we’re only on the surface |
| Ooooooooo |
| I heard a voice inside of me |
| I looked up and I saw the sky scream |
| And there was light everywhere |
| If life is an ocean |
| Then I must be on the surface |
| Only on the surface |
