Could you ever look at me
The way you’re looking at the ocean
All wounded in your smile, but holy and unriled
Could you ever look at me

Could you ever look at me
The way you’re looking at the sunrise
How it settles on your face, whole and unafraid
Like the light of your world

And I don’t know how
To chase away the fear I have inside me
And I don’t know where it is you go
When you drift away, when you drift away

Could you ever look at me
The way you’re looking at the ocean
Could you give to me that smile, if only for a while
Could you ever look at me

I don’t know how
To find a way to keep you here beside me
And I don’t know where it is you go
But it’s beautiful to me, so beautiful to me

I hope you never look at me
The way you’re looking at the ocean
Cause in the sunrise I have seen I was never meant to be
The light of your world
