Across the water I've seen those lights,
sparkling lights above the sea.
How have I caught those dancing brights
but have never been before?
Across the water I've yearned to feel
the ocean breeze slipping through those streets.
To hear the gravel crunch with my steps,
the soft patter of shoes on sandy grass.
Across the water I've seen that town
from the bridge I've been on countless years.
How have I never been before?
And ventured across that sea?
