(Acoustic guitar, gentle strumming, melancholic melody)
Waves of the ocean, life, keep rocking my tiny heart
A fragile vessel, tossed and turned, torn apart
My heart that once, I gave to someone special
Someone I thought, would be my savior
A savior to help me rise, from this endless despair
(Acoustic guitar, driving rhythm, second guitar adds fullness)
But the tide keeps turning, pulling me under the waves
My anchor lost, my hope in tatters, a love that betrays
I'm drowning in sorrow, a storm raging inside
Yearning for a beacon, a light to guide
(Acoustic guitar, soft melody, strings (violin, cello, viola)
I built my dreams upon a fragile shore
With promises whispered, and love I couldn't ignore
But the sand shifted, the tide swept in, and washed them away
Leaving me stranded, lost in the mist of a yesterday
(Acoustic guitar, driving rhythm, second guitar, strings, soft percussion (snare or tambourine)
But the tide keeps turning, pulling me under the waves
My anchor lost, my hope in tatters, a love that betrays
I'm drowning in sorrow, a storm raging inside
Yearning for a beacon, a light to guide
(Piano or flute, solo, gentle melody)
Is there a haven, a safe harbor, beyond the storm's embrace?
A hand to pull me from the depths, a love to fill this empty space?
I search for solace, a whisper of hope, a reason to believe
That somewhere, somehow, my heart will find its reprieve
(Acoustic guitar, driving rhythm, second guitar, strings, soft percussion)
But the tide keeps turning, pulling me under the waves
My anchor lost, my hope in tatters, a love that betrays
I'm drowning in sorrow, a storm raging inside
Yearning for a beacon, a light to guide
(Piano or flute, solo, sustained melody, fading out)
Oh, guide me, guide me, through the stormy sea
Lead me to a haven, where my heart can be free
From the waves of despair, the endless, crashing tide
Lead me to a love, where my heart can finally reside.
