carrying a deserted heart was getting heavy. along came a colorful soul that shed light onto a shadow. the warm smiles and healing laughter delivered peace.

meeting a 'sandcastle friend', being of the same water sign. relieved as moments are finally bright and interesting, knowing circumstances would allow no fantasies, yet the time was healing and true.

Lyrics
where have you been
it's nice to see you my sandcastle friend
you're shell still shining
and as i'm finding getting harder to pretend
this feeling growing, how much is showing outside
and all around me now, you've found your way somehow
i finally feel alive
i have rarely known through these years that grow
innocence so free as you color me
how long will you stay, paint my world away
what would be so wrong, where do we belong
whatever would i do
different shades of blue, outside
whatever would i say, take these shields away
i need to feel alive
