Out here there are no tides
Out here in the wide-open sea
Although its beauty is to behold
Nothing is happening and I'm getting so cold

Opportunities to escape
Range from few to nothing at all
No sign of passing ships
No phone to make that call

And I'm trapped in open water
Feeling bedraggled and becalmed
I'm not drowning but I'm not moving
And I'm feeling quite alarmed

I look to the horizon
To see if a vessel is in sight
But there is nothing in my eyeline
I don’t feel so water tight

And the Sun is beating down now
My head is getting hot
But my toes are frightfully cold
I'm just a little insignificant dot

And I'm trapped in open water
Feeling bedraggled and becalmed
I'm not drowning but I'm not moving
And I'm feeling quite
Yes I'm feeling quite alarmed

Not sure how long I can survive
Treading water in this blue
My body strength is waning
I'm not sure that I can pull through

Then suddenly my eyes can see
And I'm back again in my other reality
I’ve survived yet another day
On dry land
Oh lucky me, oh lucky me
