i want to sail out to your island just to see the view
to breathe the air that you exhale as i lie beside you
to feel the kiss of salty breath of sea and twilight dew
and hear you softly whisper all the things i never knew
to see your eyes ignite with light of silent silver moon
and hear the waves of memory that lull us with their tune
to sleep beneath the stars of night where innocence is shewn
to feel that all is calm and right; we’ll be together soon
to have you and to hold you and to never let you go
and care for you much more than you will likely ever know
to feel our feet sink into sand and water on our toes
as we make our way toward a place we’ll finally call home
