Lyrics
In the stormy seas of this life I wonder who I am
This boat is sinking way too fast tell me when it will end
Often there are ghosts in my head and they whisper to me
But as of late I know that they will no longer deceive
And the best of me will be what I see in you
And the way you live this life
But this heart of mine will be haunted every time
I see her in your eyes
There have been mistakes in the past that echoed down the line
The sins of our fathers and their sons will be forgiven in time
And all that I've been hoping for is just around the bend
Our world is changing very soon so when will it begin
You're the best of me and maybe even more
And the rest of me can't wait for what's in store
