Floating helpless and vunerable,
My mind ventures back to when I first came,
Came to this sea of pain.
So long ago......

I was young and ambitious.
A dangerous maid boys would love to own.
I was followed wherever I roamed.
I was a fool.

In the sea of pain boats of friends go through.
For a while I rode a boat for three,
Standing by her side.
Then a storm struck.

It was the storm that first cast me to the sea
The water boiled as only two floated.
Side by side facing a storm of horrors.
Sobbing because we had been three.

Yes, she was lost to that storm.
And it seemed we were lost to,
But then, as if from heaven,
We joined a large boat.

For a while we rode it through,
But when it got to crowded we were cast aside
Into a sea of pain.
And left behind.

We have not escaped since,
I guess no one really does.
Salvation will come,
When three lonely friends,

Sail...

Sail...

Sail together through that sea again.
