You were the ocean

I was the sand on the shore

Each time you touched me

You left me longing for more

But I knew I'd never hold you here

A fleeting moment was all we'd share



So why do I feel the way I do

Why is my time spent missing you

Why does it feel like I've lost

The only love I knew

When you were never mine to lose



It's not a possession

Passion it comes and goes

Just like the ocean

Hearts have their ebb and flow

And I know I can't turn the tide

I can't feed the sea once the river's dried



So why do I feel the way I do

Why is my time spent missing you

Why does it feel like I've lost

The only love I knew

When you were never mine to lose



Did I let the moonlight and your memory

Cast a spell on me



So why do I feel the way I do

Why is my time spent missing you

Why does it feel like I've lost

The only love I knew

When you were never mine to lose
