[Verse 1] My ardent and solitary beach, beneath the silver sky, Open to the great wild wind, where endless waters lie, You watched me come with longing, beneath the moon’s soft grace, While shadows poured their sweetness like tears upon your face. [Pre-Chorus] The salt wind calls my name tonight, And every pale-lit ripple knows, I stand alone upon your shore, Where sky and water meet. [Chorus] My ardent and solitary beach Hold me in your tide My ardent and solitary beach Keep my heart inside For though the night grows wide I still return to you [Verse 2] Your capes reach out like arms along the restless foam, To gather frightened nymphs who wander far from home, They flee across the shining waves, yet offer as they flee Their clear and loving forms to the deep, embracing sea. [Pre-Chorus] The salt wind calls my name tonight, And every pale-lit ripple knows, I stand alone upon your shore, Where sky and water meet. [Chorus] My ardent and solitary beach Hold me in your tide My ardent and solitary beach Keep my heart inside For though the night grows wide I still return to you [Bridge] And hear the moonlit ocean breathe Beneath my trembling feet The dunes and shells remember What my own mouth cannot speak [Final Chorus] My ardent and solitary beach Hold me in your tide My ardent and solitary beach Keep my heart inside For though the nymphs may fade away The sea leads me to you My ardent and solitary beach I will return to you
