i stand
small
against the blowing wind
at the edge of a mighty expanse...

the ocean speaks to me
boldly--
yet it is you
leaving whispers on my heart

the salty air
caresses my eyelids--
and it is you
breathing sighs upon my skin

the splash of tide
teases my longing lips--
it is you
i dream of kissing...

dream the dream
with me
from far away
where you are...

tonite..only tonite, love
close your eyes
and feel the wet sand underfoot
feel the wind embrace you
listen to the ocean sing for the moon
i'll slip my hand in yours
and the night is ours

though small we may stand
at the ocean's bed
the dream is as big as we make it
create it
together
with me, love...

come dream with me

just this once...

youre all wrapped up in mystery
so wild so free so far from me
youre all i want, my fantasy..."

No one ever told me ... I could get lost while standing still ...
and sorrow doesnt make a sound ... as it takes away all your will.
