Lyrics
If you could be here
To see things through
If you could be here
Would you choose me and you
Time and time again
I've ran in circles in my mind
Trying to believe that there is
Something else to find
But I saw you, at the bottom of my ocean
And I saw you, through waves making all their motion
You are there, you are there with me
You are there, it's you, you're all I see
You know when all is said and done
I'd rather have you here with me
But you have a life to live
And some things left to see
I saw you, at the bottom of my ocean
And I saw you, through waves making all their motion
You are there, you are there with me
You are there in my ocean's sea
I know you'll have to go now
And leave me for awhile
But if our love is true
Someday I'll see you smile
But I saw you, at the bottom of my ocean
And I saw you, through waves making all their motion
You are there, you are there with me
You are there, it's you, you're all I see
