Vagues

When night falls
You look far away
The sun setting in the ocean
In the distance, there's Spain
You watch the clouds
Drifting and sliding north
And there are the waves
Forming and reshaping

The wind stings your eyes
Colors start to blend
You even forget where you are
You're feeling hot and you think back
You think about life
Life that flows on
And life is cool

Faces and images come back to you
You watch the blue waves
Crashing on the horizon
And you think of those who come and go
Always a face
Always an image
All the memories

Come flooding back to you
You think of those you love
Your friends, your sweetheart
Who've moved on to another life
But they live in your mind
Like a mirage
You still have a picture

Night settles in and the orange moon reveals itself on the horizon
By the ocean
And there against all odds
You look up and see ahead of you
A shooting star
You tell yourself you're passing through too

And you'll come back here
If one day you lose your way
In the depths of life
A wave reshapes
And another forms again
That's how life goes
And the water keeps flowing
And life.
