I've always been soothed By the sound of the sea You both arrived with waves of pain And crashing of water Perhaps that's why I'm soothed By the two of you
The steady blink of a lighthouse Anchored to the bed Until you had to come out A knife to the sand dune of my belly I couldn't feel my legs But I could feel you
A tiny hand, a star fish over my heart Holding on as we were cast adrift To navigate unchartered waters Sometimes it felt like we were going under But you were always there on my chest The swell of the waves Up, down, up, down
It seems a life time ago Those stormy nights, milk drunk, lost We've built castles, moats and skimmed stones I have always been soothed by the sound of the sea And I hope that the two of you Will always be soothed By me
