No More Than A Memory

You say I'm no more than a memory

I say you're no more than the sea

You say I'm no more than a sister

Well how could you say that to me?

I say you're no more than the shoreline

No more than the gale force that blows

And you hear me no more than a whisper

Like someone who you used to know

How will it feel to leave?

To look back, to capsize, to shutter and feel all the grief?

Will I finally feel clean?

Grass stains and old live take up spots that I'll never see

You'd swear on my shores like the bible

You'd beg with your face in my hands

All covered in dirt, with promises burnt

You would light up a fire in my sands

How will it feel to leave?

To look back, to capsize, to shutter and feel all the grief

Will I finally feel clean?

Grass stains and old live take up spots that I'll never see
