You said you'd like to see the sea
So we turned towards the south
I knew your heart's desire then
Before you'd let it out
We'd seen that light before but not round here
So we lit ourselves a fire
And delighted in its warmth
The sparks flew ever higher
As we waited on the dawn
It's strange to miss a place you haven't left
With the firelight glowing in your hair
We danced our favorite dances
In the cool impatient evening air
We learn to take our chances
Cause home is not place we've found yet
Well the morning comes
And the fire burns down leaving only embers
I take a picture with my mind
In case you don't remember
That sadness never stays for you and I
Though it comes in on the waves
Await the tide
