You can’t see the bottom of an ocean,
Only the surface that twinkles in the sun.
You can’t anticipate the commotion,
The sighs, the tides, the waves have only begun.
You make me feel like I can’t drown,
Like the depths are but adventures we’ll travel.
You are the anchor that will hold me down,
I am the tangles I want you to unravel.
The rivers run high, the rivers run low,
But the tide in my heart stays strong.
You are the flow that to which I owe,
Whose side by which I belong.
So please don’t let go of my hand tonight
As I dive headfirst into sea.
When this dark abyss is only lit by moonlight,
I’ll guide you if you guide me.
