Ashore Lyrics

Every time
He disappears
Beneath the waves
Her heart behaves
Like a wild horse
In the breakers
Running from ocean to shore

She watched him swim
Against the tide
Remembering the sea
Was as deep as it's wide
Like a shipwreck
On the far rocks
Breaking up and onto the shore

I will not hurt you
Nor desert you
I will not let you go
One day you'll return
And walk up that shore
Everyone needs to come home

His hands were scarred
With clay and clod
And his mouth spat out
What the waters brought
The sun reached down
And warmed their hearts
As she welcomed him back to the world

I will not hurt you
Nor desert you
I will not let you go
One day you'll return
And walk up that shore
Everyone needs to come home

I will not hurt you
Nor desert you
I will not let you go
One day you'll return
And walk up that shore
Everyone needs to come home
