In the choir of the ocean air
Are you here? Were you ever there?
In the yellow shifting sands
In a dream I held your hand

I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand to believe your love
I stand with the waves rushing in
On the tide with my arms open wide
And I feel your love

I recall you in the sea and sand
Crying eyes and a reaching hand
Touching spray from my brow
Are you near? Where are you now?

I call to the sea to the wind
To the rain bring him back
Come again for I need your love
I turn to the sky and I search with my eyes
For a sign you were mine and I see your love

And then the ebb tide brings a small
Piece of your driftwood in it's hand
And you get washed up on the
Beaches of my long forgotten sand
And I go searching down the long
Deserted shore lines of my mind
Lighting fires with the pieces to
Pass away the time

I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand to believe your love
I stand with the waves rushing in
On the tide with my arms open wide
And I feel your love i call to the sea
To the wind to the rain
Bring him back come again
For I need your love i turn to the sky
And I search with my eyes for a sign
You were mine and I see your love
I run to the sea and I reach for the sand
Just to hold in my hand to believe your love
