To Cross The Sea歌词

作词 : Sam Tsui/Casey Breves

There’s a pier on the coast reaching out from the shore
The boat is ready
Somewhere I’ve never been but I’ve dreamed of before
The boat is ready
And my legs are like lead
As I head down the length of the jetty
But the boat is ready

There’s a house on the hill with a half-open door
A light is glowing
from the pier I look back, just to see it once more
The light’s still glowing
And I wonder do lights shine as bright in the place where we’re going?
only one way of knowing…

I grab a jacket, pack a flare
Climb aboard and say a prayer,
Why look back when I’ve already paid the fare
To get to where I’ve got to be?

To cross the sea
To cross the sea
The tide is in, the time is upon us
and every day on land is a promise
To leave what’s lost,
To dare to cross the sea

There’s a wind from the west as I cling to the oars
I journey onward
From the north and the south boats depart from the shore
we journey onward
For a moment I think I’m not scared of the waves any longer
Then the waves grow stronger

I brace myself against the swell
and up from down is hard to tell
cause in the storm the boat becomes a diving bell
but still something’s compelling me

To cross the sea
To cross the sea
The sky is dark, the night is upon us
Yet still we heed the call and the promise
To leave what’s lost
to dare to cross
To cross…
To cross
Ah

there’s a cry from a gull where the sky fades to blue
the boat stops shaking
For the first time in ages, I feel something new
a calm, a breaking
What if being immortal means more than just living forever
And it’s now or never?

Ooh
Ooh
Ah
Ah
