Ashore

Every time

He disappears

Beneath the waves

Her heart behaves

Like a wild horse

In the breakers

Running from ocean to shore

She watched him swim

Against the tide

Remembering the sea

Was as deep as it's wide

Like a shipwreck

On the far rocks

Breaking up and onto the shore

I will not hurt you

Nor desert you

I will not let you go

One day you'll return

And walk up that shore

Everyone needs to come home

His hands were scarred

With clay and clod

And his mouth spat out

What the waters brought

The sun reached down

And warmed their hearts

As she welcomed him back to the world

I will not hurt you

Nor desert you

I will not let you go

One day you'll return

And walk up that shore

Everyone needs to come home

I will not hurt you

Nor desert you

I will not let you go

One day you'll return

And walk up that shore

Everyone needs to come home
