I am on the beach Looking for the thief That stole my heart from under me And let it drift to sea Swimming too far out I am almost drowned, no hope of being found I am saved when a familiar face Comes crashing through the waves I saw him every week Driving down the street A savior in a brand new car Shining like a star Before he learned to swim A voice would come to him on night rides Faceless William elsewhere known as Mark and the father of Benjamin Don't go out alone or stray too far from home You know that summer's here And the coast is clear The ocean's not as calm as it appears Although we never met I felt like we were friends He helped me through the worst days of high school When I felt like a fool And then one day he's gone Left there on my own I walked the halls he walked, washed up and lost Without a clue that soon our paths would cross Don't go out alone or stray too far from home You know that summer's here And the coast is clear The ocean's not as calm as it appears He's my star
