Colors plainly ripple
(Oh. Oh.)
(Ripple)
Roll and sway
Over the horizon
(Farther than I can see)
I thought I heard a whisper there
That thumbed the waves at sea
Feeding a wish
Fathering a dream not yet answered
As it steadies the storms and
Circles the breeze
(Keep circling)
(Oh. Oh.)
As weeks leap to years
Some delightful melodies
Are carried away from me
But I listen to the quiet roar
Of these waters
Sometimes I catch a whisper
If I listen closely to the sea
Golden is tomorrow
(The golden tomorrow)
As it rests in forevermore
Thoughts slip to yesteryear
As the moment has us
Locked in time's embrace
As sailboats glide beyond
The sands of sunny beaches
To return by the end of the day
For it's in the best of judgement
In remaining in the safety of the bay
(Ah. Ah)
When venturing beyond the horizon
Certainty becomes most questionable
As we must ration for tomorrow
That's far from a pleasure cruise
(No pleasure cruise)
(Oh. Oh)
In the distance there are
Plenty of choppy waters
To circle the world there is
Far more than fear that gets
Between your path and the
Destination of your way
Only look to the stars above
Don't let Rocky seas break
A course that you must stay
On the horizon rests tomorrow
Stars will point what will be true
Even without the moon in sight
You will never be lacking a clue
When in the darkest of night
Absent of any of the sun's hues
Colors won't plainly ripple
But in the grace of time's blessings
All will soon come into view
(All will be in view)
(Oh. Oh.)
