Deep words spoken truly shallow
Lips merely servicing the mind
Walking on the grounds so hallowed
I opened up the place you weren't meant to find
My eyes forever blinded my heart
I fell down, down, down into love's abyss
Long, so long, I wished and worked toward the start
Washed into your ocean with each stormy kiss
Passion came wave on wave
Rolling me, tossing me into your spell
A drowning man became a slave
To each crest, to her rising swell
Now I'm clinging to abandoned planks and pieces
The waters became still as her current flowed away
Yet the storm within me never ceases
I'm here waiting, forever and a day
I pray my thirst she will quench once more
That these seas will again rise and fall as we stir
Flowing with all I still adore
Tides of love move not without her
