Shoreline
Journey to the Shoreline: Unveiling the Depths of Longing
Lyrics
I can see it in your faraway eyes
I can perceive a sense of distance or detachment in your gaze.
I can hear it in your lonely sighs
I can sense a feeling of solitude in the sounds of your sighs.
I know you're looking for the shoreline
You are searching for a metaphorical "shoreline" within your thoughts or emotions.
In your mind

Somewhere the waves are crashing in

It's hard when two people want different things
It's difficult when two individuals desire different things.
But I'd like to help you find that shoreline

Oh my darling

You know I'm a city boy at heart

You're a mermaid in an ocean dark

Where we are
Reflecting on the current state or situation.
All I want is to see you smile
