a song six years too late

for the one who will always be close enough... how did you know my heart was missing a heartbeat without a song? upon hearing this, i felt transported back to the time when you were here with me and my hand would always find yours and your steps would always somehow oddly and yet fortunately, lead to me... back to the days and nights when it seemed all like a dream... at least to me... each time haunting and foolish and difficult to escape... back to that bittersweet spot from where you tried not to say goodbye and i tried to be brave... back to that same spot which the waves of time has somehow managed to wash away... but never quite did...


Ocean Size Love
by Leigh Nash

I know what I'm doing may be dumb
I know I should not be staring at the sun
But the thought of you leads me to temptation
It's the same whatever side you're on
Separated we are delicate and small
And the space between, needs our attention
I see you right in front of me, as close as you can get
And I pray that you won't leave, this daydream yet

And it might seem much too far, to get back to where you are
But it's close enough, with an ocean size love
So if you can't reach out to me, send a sign across the sea
And I'll pick it up, with an ocean size love

I don't have to worry any more
If I really need you I'll go to the shore
And the thought of you there is my protection
I see you right in front of me, a vision in my head
And I know this is as real, as a daydream gets

And it might seem much too far, to get back to where you are
But it's close enough, with an ocean size love
So if you can't reach out to me, send a sign across the sea
And I'll pick it up, with an ocean size love

You make no sound, but I can hear you in the wind
I can see this never ends, like the sea, like you for me

And it's close enough, with an ocean size love
So if you can't reach out to me, send a sign across the sea
And I'll pick it up, with an ocean size love
And it might seem much too far, to get back to where you are
But it's close enough, with an ocean size love
So if you can't reach out to me, send a sign across the sea
And I'll pick it up, with an ocean size love

...now it all seems much too far but at the same time, close enough...
