Laying bare my memory
The thunder claps
The wind beats upon the rocks
I feel it pounding my heart
The very sand trembles
Yet I stand
Blind to all around me
My eyes fixed on her
Standing there, on the rocks
Her hair - my hair
Whips in the wind
Her eyes shine
And I can't see beyond them
All I can do
Is hold her hand
Gaze out to sea
Where both our hearts belong
The storm warns me
It shouts to me
The wind cannot awake me
I follow her home
And finally awake
A decade later
She's gone, and I'm a fool
Her mind's been taken
By the ocean
She's not herself
He's taken her home
But left her empty shell
In my mind, I hold her close
The illusion
Someday she'll return
It'll be made right
The rain strikes my face
A call from a friend
This time, I awake
She's never coming back
And my heart goes out
To the ocean
