Salt

In a life before this one

We made love with the symptoms

Of longings to return one day

The hearts we fought hard for

Are now so far from shore

What's left is legend and dreams

Your heart, it went rogue

A violent storm was in your soul

Your love, capsized my world

The answers that you seek

Like treasure that's lost deep

Will you trade your life to know

Strangled in the seaweed

Was the love that was promised me

How long ago had it died

By the light of the house

Each time it swung around

It revealed your body in time

I waited like a widow

Walking the seafoam

With faith your body'd be dry

On the waves, just your toes touched

Walking like Jesus

With faith I'd be waiting for you

When the gale had stop blowing

I was left with a knowing

Our love was lost to your sea
