I can feel you taking me down again.
Listening to the melody of the waves
Shadows, glistening spectors,
Like waves on the ocean.
Bits of sand between my toes
And I smile.
Following me from here to my bed and into the arms of sleep.
Lying awake, listening to the crash.
Smoke another cigarette and close my eyes.
Waiting for the stars to come out.
Waiting for her.
I thought I had something.
Something to make me sober, something to make me care.
And the surf comes and retreats again
Like the humming of the winds.
I thought I had you.
But I was had.
Having to have,
Holding to love.
and wait, I smile.
