[Verse 1] The tide kept singing under our bare feet, Salt on your shoulder, sand in the sheets. We left our names where the blue water curled, And thought that summer could hold the world. [Chorus] I want to hear the ocean sing again, Feel the sun warm through my hands again. Time pulled the summer out beyond the foam; Now every winter morning points me home. [Verse 2] The first frost gathers along the window, My fingers stiffen in the pale daybreak. I close my eyes and find that cove again, Your laugh, the salt wind, the waves awake. [Chorus] I want to hear the ocean sing again, Feel the sun warm through my hands again. Time pulled the summer out beyond the foam; Now every winter morning points me home. [Bridge] If I could follow that low, rolling song, Past the cold fields where the dark days run, I’d find the shore where the hours lay still, And let the last warm water touch my skin. [Final Chorus] I want to hear the ocean sing again, Feel the sun warm through my hands again. Though time has carried our summer from view, The waves still know the way back to you. [Outro] Sing me the sea, sing me the sun; Hold me where summer has just begun.
