We watched the ships come in
From across the bay
I watched your lips move in
Wondering what to say
That was good enough
That was strong enough
That was good enough for you

Love is an ocean
Caught in a storm
Breaking down walls
And taking its form
The farthest from safety
But the closest I've come
As we come undone
In Augustine

We dangled our feet
Over water from the wall
I took your hand
Ready for the fall
I'd fall fast enough
I'd fall hard enough
I'd fall fast enough for you

Don't say a word
I hope that you know
There's truth in the way that we feel
The current is strong
I'll never let go of you
We'd fall fast enough
We'd fall hard enough
We'd fall sure enough
And never look back

Behind the Song:
“St. Augustine, Florida is one of my favorite cities in the U.S. It is old and beautiful, and it is also the city that I proposed to my wife in. “Augustine” is a song that tells a story reflecting on romantic love and the attempt to figure it out.” - Joshua Pearson (Nevertheless)
