The Sea
MŘ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One step after the next
Weary and worn, feet just wandering
Hoping and longing for rest
But even here in this, my dear
Is where you'll find your peace
The sand may seem a desert but your heart is still a stream
You feel as there's no one to guide you
No clear sight of the path
Tired and torn but determined
To step forward and not look back
But even here in this, my dear
Is where you'll find your peace
The sand may seem a desert but your heart is still a stream
So keep on walking toward the sea
But even now when all seems lost
You will find your way
But even here in this, my dear
Is where you'll find your peace
The sand may seem a desert but your heart is still a stream
So keep on walking toward the sea
So keep on walking toward the sea
Keep on walking toward me
