The Wake

I'd like to be on a boat out at sea With the blue above and below I'd sail in-between The lives and the dreams Bearing where the sun sets And swimming just beneath On the waves of whale songs Are those who soldier on They look up at me with curiosity They think I'm lost they think I'm alone There's scarcely a sound Just the waves from the bow As the sun sinks down below In the vastness of night With the stars as my guide I would dive into their depths One day I will be In that place beyond the sea Where you are sailing to me So I will wait For you someday Cruel waves rise high I will survive Oh time please heal This pain we feel We are the night We hold your light Kind hearts all broke Bullet holes still smoke For now I wait In your great wake
