I was treading on the beach Summer underneath my feet Somewhere I'd never seen Mama led me by the hand 'Til the grit stuck with the damp And the foam fizzed adrift When we both strode in

I could feel the detritus lifting And I moved like I knew that I was free again Then before thinking I ventured out

Swimming Across the sea The current battles way down below me Drifting But holding on I keep my head up to watch the shore

After many years had passed Hoping I would find the path I arrived at the start In the shadow of a cliff Memories floating in the wind I squared up to the tide On my own this time

I could feel the detritus lifting While a teardrop tickled as it ran away But it got lost in the wash I tossed

Swimming Across the sea I get the feeling I always have been

Swimming Across the sea The current battles way down below me Drifting But holding on I keep my head up to watch the shore
