I was looking for a unique and fresh way to describe being in love with someone more than they are in love with you. "Ocean And Sand" was the result. Hope you enjoy!

Lyrics
"OCEAN AND SAND"
Written by: Lynn Carey Saylor
I'VE ALWAYS LOVED YOU
YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT'S TRUE
A CONSTANT IN THIS SEA OF CHANGE
A ROCK TO PUT YOUR ANCHOR TO
I AM BARELY BREATHING WHEN YOU'RE NOT THERE
I CRAVE THE TASTE OF YOUR SWEET KISS
DON'T YOU KNOW IT IS MY AIR?
(Chorus)
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
YOU COME AND GO, EBB AND FLOW
I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
WAITING FOR YOU PATIENTLY
YOU RUSH UP OVER ME
AND THEN YOU RETREAT
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
AND I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
YOU KNOW MY SECRETS, BUT I DON'T KNOW YOURS
I DON'T DWELL ON REGRETS, THE BATTLES OR THE WARS
I AM ONLY SEEING WHAT I WANTED TO
'CAUSE I NEED TO BELIEVE IN THE DREAM I HOLD ON TO WITH YOU
(Chorus)
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
YOU COME AND GO, EBB AND FLOW
I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
WAITING FOR YOU PATIENTLY
YOU RUSH UP OVER ME
AND THEN YOU RETREAT
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
AND I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
(Bridge)
I WONDER WHAT MY LIFE WOULD BE IF I COULD CLEARLY SEE
WHAT THIS OBSESSION FOR YOU IS DOING TO ME...
(Chorus)
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
YOU COME AND GO, EBB AND FLOW
I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
WAITING FOR YOU PATIENTLY
YOU RUSH UP OVER ME
AND THEN YOU RETREAT
YOU ARE LIKE THE OCEAN
AND I AM LIKE THE SAND ON THE BEACH
