lyrics

I had intentions to be good
Tried so hard feeling what I should
But one day the great grey sea got in
One long sway, saw green and I fell in
Oh, she took me in her arms
We were floating, drifting through the stars
Waves moving out and on and in...
Ah...

My lacy soul was flying loose
I was a circle and the moon
Sea fingers pulling my own tide
I opened, closed, I came in time
Oh love...

As soon as I hit solid ground
Closed windows shuttered me around
And my spirit said, "Speak!" so clear and strong
But all that I knew was it was wrong...
Oh, the swell of sea
And surge of foam
It wasn't pleasure I should know
I was afraid
I fell and prayed
Oh Lord
And I waited for a long, long time
I know, I know
I know, I know--
I have waited for a long, long time
