Washing Us Away

The day I left my world for yours I thought I would never return to mine But you pushed me out the door I no longer fit your design Walking down this road It's dark and I'm alone I admit I'm scared without you I don't remember my way home Your world we made our home All the fun and memories We shared in that bright world of yours Making Love Story our melody Sometimes there's no more breath in me My blood ceases to run My heart no longer beats Since you are not the one The funeral of my heart I attended today It's buried in the sand So the tides will carry it out one day Right into your hand So swim inside the ocean Promise to think of me Only there does my heart beat for you Deep under the sea My love is knocking Like a wave pounds the shore Washing up over you But yet you lock your door So my love recedes in tide To await fairer weather When it no longer has to hide And we can be together Though that day may never come I refuse to give up hope My life depends on your love alone Without it I couldn't cope I will walk away Relinquish my ties to thee Please do not get caught in my storm Or you will cease to be Temperamental as the tides Violent lashing when enraged Angry that your love subsides My jealousy will not assuage But I assure you This too shall pass We will have fun again My tantrums never last I love you and you love me Said the seashore to the sea But our love will float away We were never meant to be I finally figured us out Our wild, crazy existence We only make sense to eachother As in the tide we dance True we were once lovers Passionate, on fire But in the end We should be friends What we most desire I know every contour of your shores And every grain of sand But I move on, just as before On to higher land Moving on is ok We will always keep in touch Forever colliding sand and sea Mixing up so much You have a blissful life Awaiting on the beach Bliss, in the form of a girl With a lot more love to teach I will look on from beneath the surface With a smile you can trace Glad that my best friend is loved To see the love light shine from his face Flowing now are calmer waters Peace I now give to you Enjoy the memories left to me And the love I gave to you Follow your heart Never cast a second glance I'm thankful for the fairytale you gave me Thanks for giving me a chance -The End-
