Beneath this balcony of stars

Beyond the searchlight stage where we've become

The stuff of time amid the waves

Whose nets are cast along the shore when day is done



As the seabird flies aboce

My songs are sung to those I've come to love

The petals strung into the leis

The flowering of days I've just begun



A second chance to grasp a dance

Beneath the last rays setting of the sun

Tears along the trail of sand

Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am



When gods and goddesses decreed

The mountains raised up from beneath the seas

The sound of sovereign thrones

Above the hand tied bureaucrat who moans



This crazy love amazes me

As I just gaze into your eyes

The liquid sun is split upon the sea

I want to be where I can see the moon arise



A second chance to grasp a dance

Before the moment fades to summarize

Tears along the trail of sand

Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am



Along the lonely stretch of sand

Reduced to just a woman and a man

Bathed in the lunar light

The likes of which I might just understand



Among the myths I know are real

The goddess disguised as herself revealed

I sang her song out loud

She sat herself beside me in the crowd



A second chance to grasp a dance

Into the moment that she would allow

Tears along the trail of sand

Footprints in the water lead me back to who I am
