Sea Glass

I spent the summertime with ghosts
These ocean currents took their toll
I kept the messages you wrote
My refuge etched in stone
I hate this permanent divide
Long drives with nothing left to write
These instrumental haunt my nights
Your words are peace of mind

Frustrated broken down
Dragged under tidal waves to drown
Your light is the safe harbor I found

'Cause when I see your face
Lighting up the sky like the moonlight
Tension fades saving grace
Keeping me alive
Sometimes I lie awake and contemplate mistakes
'Til the sunrise
You can paint the pain away tonight

With shades of blue inside your lucent eyes
With colours that illuminate the sky
Their light is my entire life

The first trace of autumn cold at night
You left the windows open night
Your eyes are all I hope to find
Beneath the ocean pines
You love the sun upon the sea
You take it with you constantly
A vibrant color on your sleeve
I keep it close to me

Frustrated broken down
Dragged under tidal waves to drown
Your light is the safe harbor I found

'Cause when I see your face
Lighting up the sky like the moonlight
Tension fades saving grace
Keeping me alive
Sometimes I lie awake and contemplate mistakes
'Til the sunrise
You can paint the pain away tonight

I saw the sea glass you left inside
Dark green looks beautiful tonight
Reflections catch your eye
When you walk beside the ocean
Sea glass you left inside
Sky blue and porcelain combined
Their colors emphasize
Your light

I should've let this go
I kept your ghost
It left me hopeless
I feel the tempest grow again
But I saw your green light grow
It seems like home
Across the ocean
I'll never let you go again
