It's been so long out here sittin' and driftin' all along
Lost in a wild place, no sign of home
So I write you with love from the wide ocean
And I know we haven't spoken at all for so long
But there's somethin' I need to tell you
And there's somethin' I've thought about for so long
In the wide ocean
If the sun don't shine on me
I'll look through the stars ahead
And send a message from the sea
If the moon don't rise again
I'll watch the water beneath my feet
And the world will bring you to me
The clouds are all around me
The water's still below me
And the ground may never be found
If only I could build a bridge of bones
With every bone in my body
So many bones in my body
So I will fly to find my love
So shine me light
Show me your way
Show me your way to forever I fly
To find my love
So shine me light
Show me your way
Show me your way to forever
And the colors of home I'm remembering so strong
Beautiful colors I ain't seen in so long
Will I ever find you again before I die?
I don't know
And I guess I must've done something really wrong
Cause oh, I've been drifting out here pretty long
So I'll write you a love from the wide ocean
If the sun don't shine on me
I'll look to the stars ahead
And send a message from the sea
If the moon don't rise again
I'll watch the water beneath my feet
And the world will bring you to me
So I will fly to find my love
So shine me light
Show me your way
Show me your way to forever I fly
To find my love
Show me your way
Show me your way to forever I fly
To find my love
So shine me light
Show me your way
I've been good, I've been wrong, I've been gone too long
I've been right, I've been torn, I've been lost too long
I've lived my life, sung my song, I hear all alone
I need to build a bridge of bones, sing it all
The sun don't shine on me, I look to the stars ahead
I send a message from the sea
