Soul To The Sea

[Chorus:]
I give my soul to the sea tonight
So that my love can be saved from the dark
Dream will I be, this is a tale of light
I will give all my life for that to be all.

[Verse I:]
Softly he sleeps beside me
Lost in a world of dreams
Knowing soon comes a day
When he will be forced to leave.

Oh the sea is searching for something
A light in unending dark
To protect him on the way-
A prayer is not enough.

[Pre-Chorus I:]
So I'll make my final journey in his name
Let him steel his heart with all that's left of me.

[Verse II:]
Nightfall will see me walking
Silently to the shore
Through the trees, branches entwining
Witness my faithful thoughts.

Ashen will be the altar
Where I lay down my life
So in the name of love
I make this sacrifice.

[Pre-Chorus II:]
I will cull the waves and make his passage safe
He will feel my life-force in a [...]

[Bridge:]
Now in still water...
Crystalline ice enfolding me...

As my life drains away
My spirit soars
I know my shade lives on
Entwined in yours.

[Verse III:]
When he wakes, he'll know I'm lost
Yet with him forevermore
He will feel me guiding him gently
Onto a foreign shore.

[Pre-Chorus III:]
As he reaches land, his heart will be strong
And though my form is lifeless, my soul lingers on.
