| The ocean took me in its arms and cradled me
|
| Held my heart so gently, calmed my soul, it seems
|
| That I may never make my last return
|
| Well, perhaps the night is where I’m meant to be
|
| So cold and yet so warm
|
| Numb and far away from harm
|
| Distant lights a dancing glow so far from me
|
| Could you forgive me, all I’ve said and done you wrong
|
| Though I’m blind, beneath the surface I can see
|
| A glow, though I cannot be sure it’s you
|
| Another time I would have strayed and let you
|
| Burn my wings and let me fall
|
| I’d worship you and give you all of me
|
| I would have followed you wherever you’d lead
|
| I will pledge my final breath to your name
|
| Here at the end of my days
|
| Pray you won’t deny my chance to repay
|
| Another time, another life
|
| Another night the ocean was an emerald sea
|
| That glitters in my mind from time to time
|
| It’s an old wound that remains a distant memory
|
| Though not a day goes by that I don’t think of
|
| What has come to pass and how
|
| A flame should never burn this long
|
| And mine was gone the moment that I kissed these waves |
