Emerald Iris Sea
In the warmth of your gaze is where I want to be.
On a journey, endless, under the seamless sky…
Lost and adrift in your emerald iris sea.
From the cold bastille of solitude, set me free,
And tear me from the eyes that only want to pry.
In the warmth of your gaze is where I want to be.
Dreams dream of dreamers who exhale a vying plea
That billows the sails, on the current of the sigh,
Lost and adrift in your emerald iris sea.
Thrust from darkness into light, you struggle to see
With narrowed, questioning eyes, that need to know why.
In the warmth of your gaze is where I want to be.
Buried deep inside, I exhume the hidden key
That unfurls new hopes, soaring high and high and high,
Lost and adrift in your emerald iris sea.
Swaddled in safe embrace, with the strength of a tree,
Gentle are my kisses that keep rosy cheeks dry.
In the warmth of your gaze is where I want to be,
Lost and adrift in your emerald iris sea.
