The Beach and the Sea Lions
Walk with me with your hand in mine
Walk with me across the sands of time
feel the ground shifting beneath our feet
as the tide shapes the edge of the beach
Let's follow the horizon
until the day is spent
Let's follow the horizon into the ocean
as the sun is dipped
The salt is sweet upon our lips
as we taste each other
The breeze is cold upon our thighs
as we come together
Your hair is golden as the sun's reflection
it drapes my neck as we embrace
Gods last dove is falling
till it falls upon your face
Look to the south and
all you'll see are footprints
Look to the north and
all you'll see is our future
Begin to run until we can't
Don't be afraid to sleep
Begin to run until you fall
Rest you head near the sea
While you're sleeping
I'll keep us warm
by the fire you'll sleep
God will keep us from harm
Soon I'll be with you
in slumber building
part of your dreamscape
loving what you're shielding
All at once we awake
to the sound of sea lions barking
and though our dreams are done
there is new hope beneath the morning sun
What we thought was
What we wanted was
not what was for our best
What we have now is
What God created
We can't create
What God has given
is better than what we had
Let's walk to the north
More free than before
Begin to run until forever
With two sea lions on the seashore
