The Sea Says

The sea says

Come with me and whisper

Run with me

And tell me

Why is it you're lonely

I held your hand

In those years as a child

Soothed all your fevers

Tousled your hair

Gave you my treasures

My shells and my shingle

Made you feel happy

When things seem so bad

The sea says

I gave you stories

Adventure and mystery

When all was not well

I sung you to sleep

Crept into the cracks

Of your imagination

Made you feel happy

When things seem so bad

The sea says

Please don't go to pieces

Things can't be so bad

Why looking so sad

I held your hand

In those years as a child

Soothed all your fevers

Tousled your hair

Gave you my treasures

My shells and my shingle

Made you feel happy

When things seem so bad

When things seem so bad

When things seem so bad
