I Come To the Sea
I come now to land's end then to the sea
Always lost in the magic so dark and so deep
Wishes fly with the sails, tethered by hope
Knowing that the sea all my secrets will keep
We came from the sea and it calls me back home
I’m at home with the ship and breathe the salt air
The waves, oh the waves that call out my name
The mists and the winds are now mine to share
In this troubled world few things stay the same
To find my soul I come to the vast open sea
The horizon bends round and I feel at peace
I swoop with the gull and my heart flies free
So I watch the far shores and to the melody attend
Listening to the sea, a song without beginning or end
