Petals On The Sea

Blessed with all this patience, maybe it's my curse

Oh, I wish you had more of me, than a picture in your purse

God has blessed me truly, with a love like yours

But can you wait for me, till I become someone who will give you more

Can you handle the distance, as hard as it may seem

Can you see our forest, despite this difficult tree

Can you be my bear, sleep through cold winters and know that I'm there

Cause when the spring comes

I'm picking flowers, baby here I come…

[Chorus]

I'm floating petals on the sea, float your way to her (they wouldn't float for no reason)

I'm floating petals on the sea, float your way to her, from me

I'm floating petals on the sea, float your way to her (they wouldn't float for no reason)

I'm floating petals on the sea, float your way to her, from me

Each one of these petals, serve a larger purpose

Serve as my unspoken promise to be with you soon

Baby we've got our whole lives, please dry your eyes

I just need time so I can make our lives brighter than what you thought was bright

Chorus

There's only so many tears I can dry (so many tears I can dry)

There's only so many nights I'll survive (so many nights I'll survive)

There's only so many things that I can do

But to count the wonders you are, there's no number that counts that far

I'm going to be all you need, cook and clean and house and feed a family we can be

Baby girl, won't you listen to me

Because my promise they start with these

Chorus 2x
