The ocean offers a place to play and will perhaps bring back a friend one day

lyrics

The ocean!
How mighty and calm,
Why does the water crawl to me?
(What does the water say to me?)
High above, the clouds await and turn away,
There's nothing in this silence that I haven't heard before

Wondrous and drawing me towards the sparkling light,
Taking me into the depths and hiding out of sight
The ocean bed sleeps comfortably and in a cave I sleep,
There's nothing that can bother me, It's here that I can keep...

All the things I want to say,
All the games I want to play,
All the feelings I want to share,
All of me and all that I care,

I'm waiting on dust covered shores,
Eyeing the tops of foreign waves,
(Eyeing the tops so far away,)
Back at home, there's steaming pots and waiting signs,
There's hopes and cheers and gladness that was never here before,

Circling and climbing high to see the farthest light,
Imagining and gathering every sound and sight
The water waves keep fooling me, that's not the boat I seek,
The wind, it blows entirely all things from the sea,

Do you see that boat out there?
Could it be the one I care?
All the feelings drain from me,
Standing there facing the sea.

Bumy Goldson's music is intellectually perceptive and emotionally powerful.
Too many people are caught up in the illusions of "what's going on" in the news but tend to miss that right in front of them is a beautiful world unfolding.
