lyrics

Darling you are an ocean
and I hope I can hold it in
I’m a pretty big vessel but I’ll have to
wrestle my demons
as I grow in to my own ocean
and I’ll let you flow on in
and we can share secrets and treasures
from the depths within

In the dark of my night
not a cloud in sight
and though it’s not bright
your teeth are made of starlight
And your smile,
is it sunrays or moonrise?
My darling, how can it be, how can it be
that you’re also the sky?

Darling you are an ocean
and I hope I can hold it
I’m a pretty big vessel
and I will wrestle anything for you
Show me your krakens
Darling, I’m an ocean

And when there is no sound,
only breath abounds
You seem confounded
that I am astounded
I’ll let you sink down
inside, beyond, throughout
I’ve got here, I’ve got you now
Girl I will be the ground.
Darling you are an ocean
and I know I can hold it in
I’m a pretty big vessel
and have been wrestlin’ my demons
as I grow in to my own ocean
and I’ll let you flow on in
I have depths for you to swim in

Julia still has the whimsy and innocence and imagination I loved in her as a child. What a wonder to hear her bestow these gifts on her niece (and all of us!) Colin Healy
