She's waiting for me across the river
Each day I row closer towards her
Dreaming of the day that we'll be together
My pace quickens after every wave threatens to knock me over
Beneath me the river grows violent
The waters begin to fill my canoe
And I see the mistress begin to fade
The warm river embraces me
I wake up upon the sand
The island is quiet
Peaceful
I look and I am surrounded by an ocean
No mistress to be seen
Just an ocean
My ocean
