Slow Moving Sea

If you ever feel you'll lose your dreams
Or your hope seems too far gone
I'll bring the distance to your door
You couldn't ask for any more
You were around when i needed a friend
You were the means you were the end
You'll be the one i'll turn to now
There's gonna be some hard times coming down
Without you the world would be so crowded
Without you the moon would be so clouded
Without you i can be anyone
Anyone at all but myself
If ever your candle won't blow out
Or your sorrow seems so interrupted
Well i'll be the first to bring the darkness down
I'll be the silence at your side
Without you the music couldn't move me
The words would ring true
But the tune would feel so empty
Without you i can be anyone
Anyone at all but myself
But myself
Wish i was a slow moving sea
Moving away from the land so cautiously
I'd find me an island to surround
Just like you did as i was feeling down
As i was feeling down
Without you the world would be so crowded
Without you the moon would be so clouded
Without you i can be anyone
Anyone at all but myself
Oh but myself
Wish i was a slow moving sea
Wish i was a slow moving sea
Love is like a slow moving sea
Keeping in touch with eternity
Wish i was a slow, slow, slow, slow moving sea
Love is like a slow moving sea
