lyrics

The first weak rays of daylight
breaking through a foggy dawn.
The dull roar of the surf in the night,
Swallows all other sounds.

The sand below your feet feels clear
and moist and soft and soar.
The footprints that you left here
will soon enough be gone.

And the tide is high,
mirroring the sky.
And as time passes by
you note your eyes went dry.

And you wait and you wait and you wait ...

For the water to come
and wash it out.
When will the water come
and wash it out?

The wind has blown for you don't know how long.
You've noticed it just yet.
It's cold but doesn't feel too wrong.
Like the water it will carry on.

The light starts touching what's behind.
You're tempted but don't turn.
The sky turns bright but won't clear your mind.
It's been dark too long.

And the tide is high,
mirroring the sky.
And you hear a sigh.
Cannot stop wondering why.

And you wait and you wait and you wait ...

For the water to come
and wash it out.
When will the water come
and wash it out?

The last weak rays of daylight
cast shadows were you've been.
And while the dusk invites the night
there're no footprints to be seen.
