There’s a sea of lonely
Swimming sad
Looking just for
An arm to grab
I don’t need to
Understand
I’m just lending you
The two that I have

You might be drifting
And can’t find the shore
So hopeless
And all alone
The waves are
Crashing
All around you
And just when you’ve lost the will to live
You see the sun

Can we make a search-light
From all the bridges that we burn
Do you see a rescue
Or a deeper kind of hurt
Who could love you
Who could hold you
I’d swim across the sea
You don’t have to be alone
Where the shallow gets so deep

I am hurt and nearly drown (Open up your eyes)
I cry for help you turned around (Open up your eyes)
Farther from the shore, (Or you’ll be)
Farther from the shore
I am hurt and nearly drown (You’re not alone)
I cry for help you turned around (I’m not letting go)
Farther from the shore (So you’re not…)
Farther from the shore
