riptide confidence

ocean girl
barely revive me from the debt that i owe you
forgive me for feeling all that i show you
if only that showing were enough
if laughter were knowing more than a touch
my heart, wrapped with you this moment
forever would envy the intensity
shake my hand, girl, just for the kicks
let's race for awhile with the clock as it ticks
lets shake with the wind
and roll with the waves
let's dance on the beach like children
toss in the breeze
fall in the foam
make love like the clock is losing the race
loving the outcome, and enjoying the chase
melting with seashore, water and sand
apart from the minutes beyond our command
let's feel this now
with only our smiles
be free with me, girl
if just for awhile
if only a second would pass, be it now
for nothing could touch this
nothing compare
with the glow of your moonlight
and your maritime air
let's sleep here, girl
tomorrow will come all too quickly
and the very last song i want now to be sung
is that one from those brit guys
"here comes the sun"
