I heard the talk about the coming of the tide
The changing of the breeze and all the things that kept us here
It's all for you but wasn't what I had in mind
For a girl of the sea who'd waited far too long for me.
I hope you know that I never thought you'd look inside
All was quiet when I came back alive
Before we forget, move ahead, leave the dust behind
I thank you for your being here and everything you are to me.
