Swept Away

Tried to find one more moment

Before we open our eyes

Give me something more from this ocean

That kiss that we don't have to hide

I hold you the way I handle my heart

Quietly, guarded and still I'm swept away

You allow me your sweet surrender

Through a page of old poetry

That I may have never discovered

But you read it like it was waiting for me

You smile with your eyes

Before it reaches your mouth

Quietly, guarded and still

I'm swept away, like a stone that gets lost in the tide

Swept away and I'm fighting to stay on your side

Alone, I am fine and then you walk in and I cave

And I'm swept away

Took your hand with immediate comfort

Took your friendship right to my heart

Caught up in that feeling I searched for

And I hardly know who you are

I'm holding on tight in the midst of this wind

Trying so hard to stand still

I'm swept away, like a stone that gets lost in the tide

Swept away and I'm fighting to stay on your side

Alone, I am fine and then you walk in and I cave

And I'm swept away

I'm a sensitive heart that exists in hope above fear

And the weight of your words carry just what I need to hear

My questions are starting to settle

And the ocean is calm once again

But I'm swept away, like a stone that gets lost in the tide

Swept away and I'm fighting to stay on your side

Alone I am fine and then you walk in and I cave

Oh, alone I am fine and then you walk in and I cave

And I'm swept away

Swept away
