I yearn for the sea
Freedom so bold
Spray of the water yet so cold
I yearn for the sea
Where the sky seems so bold
The rush of the tides
The wind in my hair
Nothing but the strength of my back to keep me afloat
I yearn for the sea
Not for clipped wings
But where I can soar
No horizon in sight
No direction I know
The land I left behind me growing more distant
I yearn for the sea
The nights alone
Stars above me whose population is tenfold
I yearn for the sea
A beast to tame
Who no one has claimed mastery
Whose tides bring life with the potential to destroy
I yearn for the sea
Set me free
