Ocean

My skin is wrinkled, my eyes they burn

I float about in the ocean alone

No sight of land on the blank horizon

The sunset's getting cold

Blinded to help, no vessel to follow

Will I still be swimming tomorrow?

See the stars to seek their guidance

But they don't seem to show

Will I ever find my way back to the shore and

Escape this turbulent ocean?

Will my footsteps reappear in the sand

Far away from all this commotion?

No ships in sight, no lifeboat to save me

I'll have to get home on my own this time

Will I ever find my way back to the shore and

Escape this turbulent ocean?

Fighting the tide, the months they fly by

But I don't see any beaches around me

Silhouettes of sharks in the distance

And seagulls waiting high

Suddenly I saw you floating

With eyes that shine like mine have lately

Rush to you to make first contact

I hope we can make it back

Will I ever find my way back to the shore and

Escape this turbulent ocean?

Will my footsteps reappear in the sand

Far away from all this commotion?

No ships in sight, no lifeboat to save me

At least I won't be all alone this time

Will I ever find my way back to the shore and

Escape this turbulent ocean?
