You talk about the tides
And your love for the sea.
As I listen in silence,
My mind is wondering
Are you ready to dive into
The Ocean that secretly resides
In the depths of my heartstrings?
Because my love isn't shallow,
It's a wave that runs deep.
Yet, I delicately dance
Around the shores of you
Because I see that you
Could be the Ocean too.
And inside this current
Of hope flowing is a
Wonderful, beautiful, terrifying thing.
So I'm waiting and watching to see
Who will take the first plunge -
Will it be you or will it be me?
Or maybe this time
Your wave of love inside
Won't be afraid
To crash into mine.
Together, forming
One massive riptide.
