Текст песни Bright Sadness

This is such a beautiful place This has got to be the closest thing to Heaven A bright sunrise through shattered glass A fountain of youth slipping through the cracks I drag my feet through perfect sand Toward a future I no longer understand My daughter's collection of broken shells Teach me, I can still learn lessons if I let myself I'll be alright, I'll be alright, I'll be alright It's been a year at the mercy of a merciless tide But now we're here, clothes barely dry We return to the ocean one more time For you In the water We pay attention To one another In the water We remember That nothing, even death Lasts forever I want to swim, I want to swim, I want to try To trust in the mercy of the merciless tide My mother taught me all will be reconciled God, what a gift to be my mother's child I want to swim, I want to swim and close my eyes Be swept up in the mercy of the merciful tide My mother believed I will be reconciled God, what a gift to be my mother's child In the water We remember That nothing, even death Lasts forever
