You’re All Wet

D                           F

Whether or not we can see them

                C              G

There are as many stars across the sky

     D                 F              C

As grains of sand on all the beaches

           G

Of this world

We are made of the same stuff as the ocean

Tears and sweat are just saltwater and we’re used to drifting

Still going all the way back to the place that we were born

May be seen as re-uniting, but it’s not that far from drowning

Bon voyage my love

May your sunsets be fireworks dancing on the waves

There are endless reasons to forget dry land

But the open sea is not……………………. all a body craves

Its unavoidable that we should feel

As special as we do, we try so hard

To find the ways that we are different

From the rest

But it is futile after all, if we could only see that far we’d know the

Infinite is not a trifle it took eons to grind mountains made of rock

Into sands just fine enough

To dull the jagged edges of our sacred mother earth

Bon voyage my love

May your sunsets be fireworks playing on the waves

There are endless reasons to forget dry land

But the open sea is not all a body craves

There are some boats that don’t need an anchor
And plenty more do fine without a sail
But if you go out to sea without a compass or a rudder

You’re going to need an oar, to help you back to shore

There are some who go to sea as re-creation

More to put rice or bread on their tables

But whether it’s a yacht, a Boston Whaler

If there’s no land to return to you will soon exhaust your stores

Bon voyage my love

May your sunset’s red lips kiss blue waves

There are endless reasons to forget dry land

But the open sea is not……all a body craves
