"Johnny-Song"
Drowning in a flood of emotions
I look back now, I cannot see his face
Drifting, floating, sailing away
Farther from him and where he is
I wish he was not the one I left behind
But worlds seem to separate us now
I am so far away, lost in this deep ocean
But still his memory lingers on
And I've tried to get back, but not for long
Too afraid of facing him again
Too afraid of what I'd say
And much too afraid of what I'd do
A very wise man just told me
That I must not dwell too long on the past
The pain he once felt, he washed it away
Gone with the morning tide, how easy he forgot
Falling down quickly but still not giving up
Your arms reaching out for me
You are someone new, not who I expected
I'm glad you saw me, glad you saved me
Can you please help me forget?
Be the tide that the wise man mentioned
Fill me with new strength, a new meaning
Be the person I've been waiting for, for so long
You have captured my heart, held it high
Surprised me so much, you've been my savior
And even though disappointment has surrounded my life
I still see a chance for the two of us
Sailing back inland together as one
We built a ship with the power of our love
You truly have been more than I ever could have asked for
And I thank you for all that you have given me
