Sound asleep in an ocean of crashes
Sound asleep in pouring black rain
Beside voices praying with tears of ashes
Stung by the salt of weeping skies
All alone lying shoulder to shoulder
All alone with hot hand in hand
Sleepy gestures of silent tongue and lashes
Cheek to cheek with last goodbyes
Hold me a child in your arms
Hold me please hold me
I'm lost in your gaze
Floating away
Wide awake on an ocean of silence
Wide awake in soft lullabies
Linen shadows floating through open sashes
All in the touch of open eyes
Hold me a child in your arms
Hold me please hold me
Water marked sky
Of tears that I cried is
Is floating so high
All in the touch of mother's eyes
Stung by the salt of weeping skies
Cheek to cheek with last goodbyes
