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
