Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Where the light shivers offshore Through the tides of oceans We are shining in the rising sun As we are floating in the blue I am softly watching you Oh boy your eyes betray what burns inside you Whatever I feel for you You only seem to care about you Is there any chance you could see me too? 'Cause I love you Is there anything I could do Just to get some attention from you? In the waves I've lost every trace of you Where are you? After all I drifted ashore Through the streams of oceans Whispers wasted in the sand As we were dancing in the blue I was synchronized with you But now the sound of love is out of tune Whatever I feel for you You only seem to care about you Is there any chance you could see me too? 'Cause I love you Is there anything I could do Just to get some attention from you In the waves I've lost every trace of you Where are you? Whatever I feel for you You only seem to care about you Is there any chance you could see me too? 'Cause I love you Is there anything I could do Just to get some attention from you In the waves I've lost every trace of you Oh where are you?
