about

listen to the lapping of the waves ^.^

lyrics

the wind picks up across the water
the sails fill out your life begins
and I’m staring at you cross the water
but I’m too scared to try and let you in

well aint that always the way that it goes

i was a shy girl sitting in the corner
the day you walked in and took my life by storm
like a quick push hard against the rudder
you took my life to shore and brought me home

well aint that always the way that it goes

you find that person
and through the fear and doubt
he still finds a way to steal your heart away

two ships racing toward the finish
my sails catch your wind and you catch mine
mingling like the ocean and his lover
like the sky above with you I’ll always lie

the wind picks up across the water
standing at its edge with arms entwined
I lean against my only other
and breathe the salty sweetness of my life

well aint that always the way that it goes

the sun's reflected in your blue eyes
the waves of affection dancing bright
I was a lone ship now I’m coasting on your power
to take everything I have an make it right

well aint that always the way that it goes

you find that person
and through the fear and doubt
he still finds a way to steal your heart away

two ships racing toward the finish
my sails catch your wind and you catch mine
mingling like the ocean and his lover
like the sky above with you I’ll always lie
