Through the Motions
Going through the motion
Walking past the ocean
Without feeling the heart tug
Just sweeping everything under the rug
Seeing the sunset
Not quite getting it
Because I�m going through the motions
Without a single notion
How can it be?
That I have no feeling
No love in my soul
How can this feeling grow
Just going through the motions
Your love may be the potion
To cure my heart and finally
Help me see
Why going through the motions
Ignoring the beauty of the ocean
Reflecting the sunset
Is something I�ll regret
I need your heart to help mine
To better my life and help me define
That there�s love in my soul
Something I want to shine and glow�
