Quietly as I slumber
Gently caressed by the water
of the sea
Oh, the beauty, the peacefulness
that surrounds me
I see the moon in the sky
through the water, so clear
Passion inside I feel
My True Love
will soon be here
Gaze at all the stars
My hand reaches out
I do not know where you are
But, I know what I must do
Leave my peaceful chamber
I will search for you
Splashing upon the shore
I walk through the sand
Keep watch for you, My Love
Looking across the land
I dare not wander
My shelter is within the sea
You, My Sweet Love,
must come to me
My arms, within the waves
Reach out to you, My Dear One
You must hurry to me
before the rising sun
The heat of the day will draw life
from my soul
I will be pulled into the abode of Sheol
Daybreak....
No, please not yet
I know he will come, he did not forget
The sun in the sky is getting so bright
My Love, I will not be here in the night
I waited so long
Now I have been drawn into the clouds
They conceal me just like a shroud
My heart is breaking, for I am here
You are there
Can I reach down to you, do I dare
Lighting flashes, thunder roars
Rain falls down to the earth's floor
Yes, oh yes, falling from above
I am within the rain
There he is, the man I love
I am falling all around you
within this space
Feel my fingertips of raindrops
caressing your face
From the sky I did fall
I did come to you after all
Now as the sun pulls me into the mist
Gently upon your lips, one last raindrop
leaves a kiss
Out across the distance, so many miles
Just beyond the rainbow, now
I look back at you, My Love
And I smile
The raindrops gave life, again to me
As they tenderly carry my soul
back into the sea
