On the beach overseas
|
Icy water slaps at our knees
|
And the buoy was signaling
|
As if it knew we were far from home
|
|
Then you looked at me
|
And all I could see
|
Were the lights that were flickering
|
And suddenly we were all alone
|
|
It's not an impossible thing to do
|
Yet I'm helpless to do anything for you
|
I can't keep from wondering
|
|
You were under a spell
|
Waiting for time to tell
|
If I could, you know I would
|
Accept this moment and sympathize
|
|
Then you looked at me
|
And then all I could see
|
Were the walls closing again
|
And the desperation in your eyes
|
|
It's not an impossible thing to do
|
I know there's a better life for you
|
I can't keep from wondering
|
|
It's not an impossible thing to do
|
And I'm helpless to say anything to you
|
I want to see a better life for you
|
But I can't keep from wondering
|
