Lyrics

VERSE 1
?I'm here,? she cried to no one,
A thousand miles from me.
My dream had woke without her,
Left her lonely by the sea.
VERSE 2
Now I'm standing in a bar somewhere
Looking out across the lines
And the shapes that shine into my eyes?
Falling in love and out of time.

CHORUS

Well, I'm waiting for a ride to the next best thing
But I'm not sure (of) what it is.
And I'm searching for a feeling that there's no place I'd rather be
What I want is what I fear and where am I?

VERSE 3
My job is nothing like this smile,
The soft caress of all these curves.
A blast of music seems to push me toward
The yearning that I'm yearning for.

CHORUS (Last line repeats)

BRIDGE
The highway dances as if no one sees, Snakes itself into the night.
Handfuls of water on a barren road. A laughing moon to light my way.

VERSE 4
She walks the beach and sees this scene,
The saddest sight in all the world.
A wind swept wave that never felt itself.
Part of the sea that gave it birth.

CHORUS (Last line repeats)
