When I was young
I'd dream of all the oceans
I'd never see
And then I got a little a older
And I realized that even I
Could purchase a plane ticket
And dip my toes
In any liquid paradise
I desired
And then I got older still
And I realized
My thirst to see the world
Was easily quenched
By simply
Looking into your eyes
I've drowned in you
And I never want
To breathe again
How fortunate am I
To have found both
The sun and the sea
In the gaze of another
