Waves were breaking on the shore
Our toes deep in the sand.
You picked up a broken shell
And closed it in my hand.
“I know this isn’t much, but I promise someday
I will lay the whole world at your feet, if only you will stay. “
Love is like that tiny shell, not perfect, but made to last.
And I would give up everything to relive one moment in our past.
I just want to feel that beautiful again.
Your eyes could not get enough of mine
Your lips were heaven sent.
The sun was all around us, not a cloud in the sky.
The way we laughed like lovers do.
And your arms fit me just right.
I want to feel that beautiful again.
Your love was mine forever. We would always be
Together, we would face the world. That’s what you promised me.
The summer sun still shines and the waves crash all around. How could you have loved me oh so much, just to let me down?
Ten years are gone. I often wonder where you are.
I can still taste your salty lips. Feel that fire from our spark.
The way you pulled me close to you as the ocean pushed and shoved.
Back then, that was a sign to me that I’d never lose your love.
I sat there on the empty shore, the tide swept away my tears.
Lonely, broken hearted and still wishing you were here.
Time has not been kind to me, the lines show it in my face.
Remnants of a beauty queen, the pieces not in place.
Echoes of your laughter, that whisper in my ear..
And the way you touched my hand
I just want to feel that beautiful again.
Heaven knows I need you to feel that beautiful…again.
