Ocean

This is the road that I see
When I close my eyes
And it looks just like a river
I drift to deliver
Tricky words, torn between
Hypocrisy and truth
But my ride still drifts in devotion
To the endless ocean
In your eyes

Remember when you told me how
I could never love again
Well my head was disintegrating
Your laugh captivating
And then we kissed in the mist
Between a word and the unsaid
I was adrift in erosion
Lost in the ocean
Of your eyes

Let me be the voice that awakens
What hides beneath your smile
Let me be the kiss that cuts through
Your lies without warning
We could love again, you and I
Just as the morning
Kills the speechless night all the time

In a room full of smoke
And howling dogs
I find you drunk and disarming
Your twinkle so charming
Then I see a distant storm
A shadow crossed your face
And I know that you are as lonely
As the endless ocean
In your eyes
