Lyrics
The waves are crashing hard against the soft sand
An age old battle of advancing retreating
The gulls are circling round the docks with their hands
All cupped together for the scraps we're leaving
The sails are climbing high against the blue sky
Forever reaching for the things they can't own
I hope someday they show we've misjudged their drive
By lifting off the waves to heights unknown
The night falls and the stars start to rise
They peer out like they're the ocean's eyes
But I know you can see them too
Curled up next to someone new
The dawn breaks, the steady sun starts to rise
I peer out with tired sleepless eyes
But I'm sure you've got the better view
Curled up next to someone new
