I would build you a bridge into the waves if I knew you were afraid of getting your boots wet It’s never that simple I know It would take a lot of lumber and it’s not your boots you’re worried about But I understand, the cliff is always there the ocean never takes it I hope you enjoyed your stay on the beach The sand sure loved having you sink into it But high tide is here and you can’t swim out with the grains you’ve come to love Not without letting go of the cliff Stay safe please You never know where the under-toe will take you Atlantis Some other beach, with some other cliff
