Waves outside my window

Whispering slowly

Waves outside call your name.

It may be the reason I'm waiting

Stay silent.

 

Could have laid a spell on you -

But who's to guide me?

Spell on you means one thing -

Spell on me.

It may be the reason I'm waiting

Stay silent.

 

This is a great day - with no beginning

This is a great step - like children running.

This is the way it goes.

So sweet and sudden it hurts me.

 

They say it's over now.

Welcome, ye keys and cages.

It's over now - I can't hear

The sound of your simple name

That keeps these waves from stopping -

I'm waiting.

 

This is a great day – with no beginning.

Great day – with no tomorrow.

This is the way it ends – so sweet and sudden...

I’m watching...

I'm looking at the white sail burning

...And it hurts my eyes.
