Untitled

Beneath the moon, against a tree

On the bank beside the sea

Below the stars, near the waves

Along the shore, close to the caves

Off from the world, just watching Mars

With you there—that’s where my heart is carved

No voices but the tide’s refrain

No questions, just your hand in mine again

By ourselves, in quiet wonder

Ocean deep and sky up yonder

You laughed, I smiled, we stayed a while

Time stood still in your golden light

I looked at you and saw my life

If I were alone, I’d fall apart

But here you are—keeper of my heart

You gazed up at the silver moon

Perched so still on the beachy dune

With stars reflecting in your eyes

Like galaxies I can't describe

And as I watched your peaceful face

The world around us lost its race

I never knew what love could be

Till sitting still beside the sea

By ourselves, in quiet wonder

Ocean deep and sky up yonder

You laughed, I smiled, we stayed a while

Time stood still in your golden light

I looked at you and saw my life

If I were alone, I’d fall apart

But here you are—keeper of my heart

If I lost you, don’t know what I’d do

Close my eyes or cry it through

Or hold it in and wear a smile

But nothing could replace your style

Your love, your soul, your steady grace

I only breathe when I see your face

By ourselves, in quiet wonder

Ocean deep and sky up yonder

You laughed, I smiled, we stayed a while

And all I know, so simple, true

Is every beat says I love you

If I were alone, I’d fall apart

But here you are—keeper of my heart
