Whaler

I slip away almost every night
Waves crash like glass in the moonlight
Years pass but I know it's true
One day I'll find you
The wind and sand dancing through my hair
Glass of wine mixed with brine in the ocean air
Years pass but I know it's true
One day I'll find you
Again
I picture of you as I drift away
Firelit nights ignite til the break of day
Like a child so free and wild
Sometimes I swear I'm there
Day to day I survey like a cartographer
Shore to shore, looking for a way to clear the blur
On the tip of my tongue always slippin off but there are
Times I swear
I can taste the air
Like honey on my lips
A secret never shared
A yearning desperate kiss
Leaving me breathless
Sometimes I can't help but wonder
If you were ever really there
My white whale, my Atlantis
Just a castle in the air
Sometimes I can't help but wonder
If you were ever really there
My white whale, my Atlantis
Just a castle in the air
Were you really there, were you really there I wonder
I swear
I can taste the air
Like honey on my lips
A secret never shared
A yearning desperate kiss
Leaving me breathless
