Crashing Into You

Ease my anxiety 
I see a bird flying freely,
Landing on a tranquil tree
I wish, too, to be set free
Love hurts especially
It ruins my self-esteem and glee
It's killing all of me
I want to sing so delightfully 
That isn't my only plea

I am a wild, reckless sea 
I am a dolphin, riding the waves of ecstasy
I am a seagull, caught in the wind of pure prosperity 
Where, now, can I flee?
There are so many sunsets to see
Yet, so many sunrises possibly
I must build a tolerance for sanity
I must listen with my heart, you see?

There's so much to see in the waters of plenty
Here comes my soul, spreading its wings dreamily
I'm the ocean of commotion and solitude, so I have no space for vanity
I see happiness in the sky of baby blue with you by my side happily 
You crash into me...
You crash into me...
Like the waves of the sea...
You crash into me...

Baby, I hope you'll see
The smiles I make out so graciously
You praise them and love them gloriously 
My heart is pounding like drums victoriously

Baby...can you and I be free?
Baby...we are sugar and tea

Come stay a while longer as I sing you to sleep in tidal tranquility 
And maybe, this time, we will seek liberty
Crash into liberty's captivity 
Crash into me and this glad sea

The sky and ocean are shining anew like it should be
For you and me
You and I will make our fantasy a reality
