The waves dancing on the shore The seashells washing up on the sand It all paints a picture of home The boats far out to sea Against a backdrop of citrus skies It all paints a picture of my home The seagulls crying out to each other Beacons standing strong and tall On rocky cliffs and reefs It all paints a picture of my beautiful home Holding hands on the cliffs Overlooking the sunsets by the sea This all paints a picture of my home The pirates here of long ago Searching for hidden treasure Things forgotten under the sea Sunken battleships, years of rot It’s all a picture of home to me The footprints in the sand From where I take my morning walks Barefoot, my skin against the gritty sand This is all a painting of my home The sandcastles of destroyed wishes Hopes, dreams, and ambitions Torn asunder by angry waves It is still a painting of my home Hibiscus crowns and lovers Happy children dancing in the waves Smiling, as they build their goals Yes, this is a painting of my home I’m lost across the endless water Floating in a canvas of inky blue sky Please, show me a picture of my home Still mourning in the foam and froth Praying for a new dawn tomorrow Please, show me a painting of my home I’m drowning in these waves My ship is ready to be lost at sea The waves are climbing higher I look for one spark of light To guide me—show me the way Please, paint me a picture of home But I cannot see in the wind and rain The stinging of salt upon my face No familiar light from the beacon So I keep on praying faithfully Please, paint me a picture of my home
