Night creeps forth and
As I lay in bed, I
Feel the tug of the tide
On my soul
As the moon passes overhead
And my body remembers
The gentle rock
And salty caress
Of the sea
As I float, adrift offshore.
The feeling
Of the ocean’s waves breaking
Sinks into my bones,
And, like a lullaby,
It lulls me to sleep.

Night creeps forth and
As I lay in bed, I
Feel the tug of the tide
On my soul
As the moon passes overhead
And my body remembers
The gentle rock
And salty caress
Of the sea
As I float, adrift offshore.
The feeling
Of the ocean’s waves breaking
Sinks into my bones,
And, like a lullaby,
It lulls me to sleep.
