Life is like the ocean
Flowing on through the motions
All with no notion

In the night waiting
The tiger lurks through the shrubs
Listening, silently

Rays from the sun
Pierce the ocean, on the beach
Where we run…laces undone

Us Two, We

Can we flee just you and me
to a place where we belong
where we, us two, we can be happy and free
where no one can hear our love song

where we can be hidden

where no one can catch us even if they tried

oh how lovely it would be
if it were only you and me

Just us two, we...perhaps in the sea

oh yes the sea, that will do nicely
now come my love it's time to flee

away from land we shall go
into the sea we venture
moving with the current's flow

Do you remember...because I do

I remember when you said I love you
I remember when I said yeah me too

I remember when you said love me
I remember when you carved our names in that old oak tree

I remember our first kiss
and I ignored the fact that you missed

I remember when you said together...always
I remember when I stood in front of you dazzled and amazed

I remember the sparkle in your eyes and
I remember the tears you made me cry

I remember when I could never be truly honest with you
I remember me packing, and you asking is there anything that I can do

I remember when I looked into your eyes and
I remember when we said our goodbyes
