At the Water's Edge

Standing at the shore,
Seagulls singing out a melody.
I close my eyes and listen
The roaring waves play like a symphony.

The earth and sea meet here
And you and I met here so long ago.
Under winter skies,
We left our footprints in this sand of gold.

Oh it's been so long since
We found those footprints.
Babe, please come find me,
I'm here at the water's edge.

A mist of crystal droplets
Explodes to life with every crashing wave.
It surrounds me like a blanket,
Wrapped up tight to keep me warm and safe.

And I still hear your laughter,
It echoes off the cliffs out to the sea.
I turn my eyes to find you,
But all I see is this long, empty beach.

Oh it's been so long since
We found those footprints.
Babe, please come find me,
I'm here at the water's edge.

And I'll brave nasty weather,
For us to be together,
But I can't wait forever,
I can't wait forever.

Oh it's been so long since,
We found those footprints.
Babe, please come find me
I'm here at the water's edge.
