Lyrics
I keep trying to write a song for you
But it’s so hard and I tear each one in two
How can I tell you what you really mean to me?
It’s actions more than words that count
If you’re lost at sea.
Did our paths cross before in another lifetime?
Ships passing in the night. Not the right time.
How would it have turned out if there’d been a you and me?
Were there other ports of call? Or were we lost at sea?
It could have been easier if we’d met way back then
With the wind blowing behind us. No need to start again.
It wasn’t plain sailing. There were waves out in the bay.
Till we met at the harbour with baggage from yesterday
We’ve been together now for so long. Feels like a lifetime.
Since we fought to stay afloat. Shared the same lifeline
Drifted to a calmer shore. Friendship became something more
It’s actions more than words that count. When you’re lost at sea
It’s time to celebrate your special day
With memories of good times. Don’t let them slip away.
More important than anything stay as you are.
Journey to the future together. Plain sailing you and me,
Let’s get lost at sea
Sunset on the horizon. Not afraid of the dark.
Don’t want to waste a single day. Nothing will tear us apart.
Follow our dreams together. Even if they’re not the same
I’ll love you for ever. In sunshine, storm and rain.
