Story Behind The Song
A friend in Canada asked me to write a song one night in about 15 minutes flat. So I did, all about her and her present situation. It was fun to do and proves you can write a good song in a short time.

Lyrics
Well on this night
of a million stars
so cold and bright across the sky
over the waves
over the sea
you talk to me
with all this love
that breaks you down
bears out your sould
like a saviour's crown
over the waves
over the sea
you talk to me
with all these words
that catch you out
they paint us in
and they deal in doubt
over the waves
over the sea
you talk to me
nothing else matters in this life
and nothing's gonna change
sometimes you've gotta help yourself
before this life
will rearrange
and in this hour
of loved and lost
well we're just hands
that count the cost
over waves
over the sea
you talk to me
you talk to me
you talk to me
you talk to me
you talk to me
