Like the ever rising tide to the spot
Where I wrote you name in the sand,
Like a fool fighting against the odds
On this shallow uneven ground I stand.
Lost in a shallow bay of thought
Nay no breakthrough can port here,
Lost in the current of your pain
Oh I never meant for any of this dear.
Going with the breeze of regret and fear
Catching an updraft and assail over the ocean,
Going straight up into the heavens above
I'll fly through these clouds without a notion.
I'll soar on until I find a reason why
I've done all these foolish things to you,
I'll soar on until I know who I really am inside,
And why I tell you all the things I do.
I'll stay up here so very high
I'll fly over this tear filled sea,
I'll stay up here in these clouds
Until I find a land that explains myself to me.
I won't come down until I truly know
The reason why I first set flight away from you,
I won't come down until I know who I am,
I'm not coming down without something new.
When I finally come down from way up there
I'll land right there on that same shore,
When I finally come down from those clouds
I promise we'll be something more.
When that day finally comes about
I'll attempt to walk the shore with you hand in hand
When that day finally comes about
First thing I'll do is rewrite you name in the sand.
Where I wrote you name in the sand,
Like a fool fighting against the odds
