lyrics

I stare at the door
waiting for your return.
Tides lap the shore,
the angry waters churn.

Never accept the fate you’re lost.
(I’m longing for everything that I have just lost)
God, if you hear me, bring her back to me.
(Back to me)

Why?
To see into your eyes…
Just give it time,
to see if you’ll arrive.
Years and years won’t make it go away.
I pleaded to God to just let her stay.
Stop saying sorry for my loss.

You promised that you would come back to me unscathed,
and now all that’s left of you is beneath this grave.
Why, God?
Just let me say I love you for one final time.

Never accept the fate you’re lost.
(I’m longing for everything that I have just lost)
God, if you hear me, bring her back to me.
(Back to me)
For this cruel turn of fate
I will ever curse the sea.

Why?
To see into your eyes…
Just give it time,
to see if you’ll arrive.
Years and years won’t make it go away.
I pleaded to God to just let her stay.
Stop saying sorry for my loss.

I stand up here above our home cold and alone.
Watching and waiting for the ship I know I’ll never see.
Why did you leave?
I cannot sleep.
Standing above our home, it's cold and I’m all alone.
I will take the plunge.
I will take the plunge.
I will.
She will never show.
She will never show.
She will…
