You, Me and the Sea

We stand on the sandy shore Our hands and hearts we withhold Breathe in the unspoken The words I yearn to be told Some search for shells and stars We search for answers to appear Like silhouettes against the moonlight Dispelling all our fears He is eternal summer Warm smile, glowing skin The clear, green waters Of his eyes invite me in I am swallowed in the swell Of the ocean in his heart Drowning in my own desire The current pulls me apart He has his eyes on the stars I have my eyes on my whole world The warmth of the spirit lingers A breath of truth escapes, barely heard Kiss me with your warm wet lips Still salty from the sea And whisper again above the waves How deep your love runs for me We live our mortal lives away Stars watching from above Tracing names in the sand In hope of eternal love For now we share our secret The shoreless dreams we both can see Whispers carried on the wind You, me and the sea
