Cast Away

Cast Away Waiting for you makes me feel Like a cast away in Malden So much golden sand To slide my bare feet in My feet feel each hot grain Fills between each toe Sun bakes the air around me As I feel the warm wind blow My eyes see an endless sight Of such blue I can't take in The waves, the crests, the tides Loneliness, running thin Waiting for you makes me feel Should I hope you’d ever come? I spend the day collecting seashells Inevitably missing some I’ll stare out into blue’s madness Until the heat burns out my eyes And never stop looking for you Where the ocean meets the sky Planes of rescue flew over me While waves have eaten this coastline I'm going mad in my sadness Somehow wishing you would be mine
