I Dream an Ocean

I dream an o...

I dream an o...

I dream an ocean of relief when I see you reaching out for me

Your fingers reaching for my fingers as the riptide gleams

But I know it's not, not the way you feel and I

Know I'm not what you thought you needed

But I could swear I saw in your eyes

More than a trick of the light

Guess you were just one more drop into the blue

Now we're running through my empty house

It's much bigger than I remember now

Hallway after hallway, endless walls without rooms

You rest your hand upon my shoulder

In a way that reminds me of my father

And say you'll lead the way, you'll never leave me alone

But I know it's not, not the way you feel and I

Know I'm not what you thought you needed

But I could swear I saw in your eyes

More than a trick of the light

Guess you were just one more drop into the blue
