lyrics

As I approach the shore
I dream awake of her
Her softest songs of passing ships
And her sailors who belong there

The sea is still and lilac
With reflections of a foreign sky

I am but one man who has loved her
Granted passage to her soul
But to have been in line at all
Means to me my luck has turned

I can see her tower growing large
As I draw in close to her

“I have seen you only once before
When I slept beneath your star
Your eyes are blue as ocean tides
Your skin is bright yet coarse”

For all these days I’ve suffered
Toiled in the heats of loss
Now that I am almost fed and full
I shall crave these seas no more

She turns to me, untethered to this earth
Like a rose above the waves

“I have seen you only once before
When I slept beneath your star
Your eyes are blue as ocean tides
Your skin is bright yet coarse”
