歌词
Said the Sea to the Shore when the evening tide came in
"I am here to tell you tales of were I've been
In the shells I've whispered my love song in secret rhyme
And left them at your door for you to find
Tempered the force of my waves when the Gods would roar
And took care of the ships full of men you sent off to war
I've loved you so long" said the Sea to the Shore.
Said the Shore to the Sea "you left me here too long
I was promised to the moon while you were gone
He waited until the brightest night
And promise he'd always say and watch over me
Of why did you wait till now" said the Shore to the Sea
Said the Sea to the Shore "I swore I'd return
And here I am with all that I have learned
I can hold you now with arms of foam and spray
Touching you at the coming of dusk and the breaking of day
Smoothing out the fold on every stone"
Said the Sea to the Shore "don't leave me here all alone"
Said the Shore to the Sea "you've said all these things before
And I tell you I can't hear them anymore
Oh there was a time once I'd have given in
I'd hear you savage white caps rolling in
Your troughs would come up slow beneath my chin
Your mist would kiss me softly on my skin
Leaving the salty trails where you had been
My legs would give out in your undertow
Oh but Sea that was a long time ago"
So the Sea took one last loon and turned away
And the Shore was more than strong enough to stay
And castles melted back into the sand
Driftwood drifted up onto the land
Rocks rose up proud in shinny skin
Shells began their gossiping again
