Lead me to the sand and sea Sit a while beside me, and I won't mind Wait until the tide has turned To see what's left behind Then I'll search for things to save Wake me if I'm dreaming And if all I've planned starts Streaming through my fingers Out of hand, grains of sand Let the woman I'll become Dare to walk the shoreline And to ride the wave Let the ocean show its might But leave me feeling brave When all else is washed from sight Wake me if I'm dreaming And if all I've planned starts Streaming through my fingers Out of hand, grains of sand Never let me hide away In caves and shun the light of day Let the waters gently steer Me to my moorings far from fear So I might come to comb this beach Seeing what my eye can reach And knowing that a heart can open here Open here Lead me to the sand and sea Sit a while beside me, and I won't mind Wait until the tide has turned To see what's left behind
