DrowningSun

lyrics by Anne-Marie Almedal

the sea drew her near

the drowning sun

she stood there waiting

for a sudden touch on her shoulder

a distant call from the storm

it was his nearness she couldn't miss

she went all the way into the waves

swallowed her fears

and tore the anchor free

maybe she had been too weak

the sea drew her near

the drowning sun

and the cold sea woke her up as from a dream

and she realized

the sun was already long gone

another evening gone

another long day

and nothing had changed

she stood there waiting

for a sudden touch on her shoulder

a distant call through the storm

the sea drew her near

the drowning sun
