The Sea & The Shore (Featuring John Fullbright)
Amy Speace

Said the sea and the shore and the evening tide came in

I'm here to tell you tales of where I've been

And the shells are whispered my love songs and secret rhymes

Left in at your door for you to find

Tempered the force of my waves when your gods would roar

To carry the ships full of men that you sent off to war

I've long for you so long, said the sea to the shore


Said the shore to the sea, you left me her to long

And I was promised to the moon while you were gone

He waited until the brightest night

To demand my hand under his fullest night

And promised he'll alywas stay and watch over me

Oh why did you wait till now, said the shore to the sea


Said the sea to the shore, I swore that I'd return

And here I am with all that I have learned

I can hold you now with arms of foam spray

Touching you the coming of dusk and the breaking of day

Smoothing out the fold on every stone

Said the sea to the shore, don't leave me here alone


Said the shore to the sea, said all these things before

And I tell you, I can't hear them anymore

Oh, there was a time once I had given in

And hear your savage white caps rolling in

Your truffs would come up slow beneath my chin

Your mist would kiss me softly on my skin

Leaving salty trails where you had been

My legs would give out in your undertoll

Oh but sea, that was a long, long time ago


So the sea took one last look and turned away

And the shore was more than strong enough to stay

Castles melted back into the sand

Drift would drift it up to the land

Rocks rose a proud and shiny skin

Shows began their gossiping again.
