My heart is yours
But my body's fighting to make it to shore
The danger is burning, the water is warm
So is my blood as it steadily pours into where I was born
The ocean, the mother of all life on earth
So vicious, so gentle
She gives and she burns
The life I was given has an ending date
It looks like today
Oh, please, one more day
Let me stay
As I try to catch my breath
I roll onto my back and see the sun
Give me hope to carry on
Oh
