Well I spent two days in traveling
The Mountains to the Sea
I knew the change would do me good

And set my spirit free
I spent two nights in wondering
What it is you've done to me

Before an answer came I reached the sea

There I spent my days in wandering

The reaches and the reefs
And my soul becomes so quiet
I can hear my own beliefs

I sail out on the ocean
'Til I cannot see the land
And I wonder if you'll ever understand


Why a soul with so much heaven held
Should ever feel so damned

Why it's always so uncomfortable
To hold anothers hand
Why of late I feel myself a ship

Out to sea unmanned
and I wonder if you'll ever understand


There are seagulls in the morning here
I watch them search and soar
As they dive to take the fishes that swim just

Just beyond the shore
Then they fly off in the distance
'Til they finally fade from view

and somehow they remind me so of you

There's so many things you need to learn

That I can never teach
And places in your troubled soul
That I may never reach

So I wander like an ebbing tide
Along this lonely beach
And cast my dreams like stones into the sea
