You looked at me like waves at play
Soft and bright then drift away
A fleeting touch that won't remain
A tidal pull I can't explain
Your eyes were oceans deep and wide
Hiding secrets in the tide
I reached for you but you recede
A dance of want and quiet need
You pull me close then let me go
A rhythm only you can know
Like waves that crash then slip away
You're here then gone like yesterday
Your voice is like a distant shore
Calling me but nothing more
I try to anchor but I fail
You vanish in the evening pale
Oh how you rise oh how you fall
A current I can't fight at all
You leave me stranded in your wake
A love that's real but feels like fake
You pull me close then let me go
A rhythm only you can know
Like waves that crash then slip away
You're here then gone like yesterday
