Lyrics

You were born from oceans wide
The old salt and rhymes
You raced with joy, you danced the tides
Knew every star that ever shined

Years rolled on, coastal winds changed course
You started doubting each ebb and flow
You hid, hardly glancing at old friend Moon
Receding in the darkness below

No song moved within your heart
The Winter’s wind brought cold and loss
Diamond days were far apart
All hope was locked in frost

But let your light shine, let it warm your soul
You’re not still water
Every river, tear, every storm that blows
You’re not still water

Out you flowed to the rainbow’s edge
Every color reflecting bold
Treasures lush — you were the siren’s call
Until you felt the riptide’s hold

Cold and cruel was the voice inside
An anxious weight wrapped around
Life above but the lies that you told yourself
Fed the fears that kept you down

Far from shore, in the push and pull
The counter current locked you in
Break the binds, toss away old lines
You may feel weak, be brave - swim!

Chorus
