A child
I'm awake, waiting for the dawn
Half on the dry, half in the sea
Dipping hands half way to the elbow
They say I touch the whole world that way
Out here the sea always saves
Life steals, the sea gives back
Time passes, hours standing
Out here I'm a child, that nourishes me
Look to the horizon
I hold my breath and in a split second
The body dives like the fishes do
That's where I find peace
Because the sea always saves me
Life steals, the sea gives back
Time passes, hours standing
Out here I'm a child, that nourishes me
I go to the sea, that often
What must be done, isn't hard doing
All that matters lasts briefly
While I am a child and all is slow
Come to the sea, here by the reefs
Rest your head, the sea asks nothing
Then breath in and no worries
Be a child, that is what you need
Out here the sea always saves
Life steals, the sea gives back
Time passes, hours standing
Out here I'm a child
